I switched from Mac to PC

I bought my first PC in 1993 but switched to Mac in 2006.  Because of Apple's recent lack of dedicated video cards and no RTRT, I bought a PC with  NVIDIA 3080 ti with 12GB Vram.

The transfer of files and software is going well.  The new PC has a 2TB SSD, 2TB HDD and 6TB HDD.

I was able to connect and share the PC to the Mac Pro using an Ethernet cable.  This allowed transferring data directly without using any external drives.

I have 1.4TB of video and almost 1TB of photos.  Add years of CA drawings and the transfer is large.

Here's how I connected the two machines for direct sharing.

I do WIN 11 at the desk but am migrating most things to a new 2021 MBP M1Max fully spec'd (except for 4TB vs 8TB SSD)

There are subtle differences but I find both get the job done.  

The new 43" Dell is just shy of 1:1 ARCH D so it's cool to see the plans full-size.

 

New tech is fun.
