Review on πŸ’» Enhanced Belkin Easy Transfer (F5U279) by Sean Andrews

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works great - from W7 to W7

At first I wasn't sure if this cable would work for me as I read somewhere that it only works for 32-bit versions of Windows 7 and 32- Bit versions works from Windows 7. . I recently bought a new Windows 7 64-bit laptop and needed to transfer files from my previous Windows 7 32-bit laptop. Anyway, I found this cable here on Revain and the description said it was compatible for the transfer I need. I suppose if it doesn't work I'll just return it. I ordered it via local express shipping and received my cable on time. This cable is extremely easy to use with "Windows Easy Transfer". If you have Windows 7, you don't need to install any software. If you have XP or Vista you can simply insert the CD that came with the cable and follow the instructions. I ran Windows Easy Transfer on both computers and selected the Use Easy Transfer Cable option. You can also use DVD/CD but that would cost me a lot of discs to throw away. I plugged in the cable, waited a few seconds for both of my laptops to recognize the device, and then continued the transfer. The process took a while (maybe an hour or so) as I had a significant number of files. I share everything, like your documents, music, videos, pictures and basic user account information. Any programs you have must be reinstalled. This cable works great and I'm very glad I bought it. Sitting in my new laptop, I'm relieved that every time I look for a file, I always have it with me!

Pros
  • Same as everything
Cons
  • Quality
