We have replaced our laptop and wish to be able to access files on both that and our desktop. The laptop is Apple with SSD and the desktop is a PC with an HD. We will replace the desktop in the next year or two with a machine with SDD. We want to use the laptop away from home. We have a 2TB Sandisk portable SSD that works on both machines.
The alternative is to use the cloud, but I am wary of it. I assume, rightly or wrongly, that to use the cloud one must have access to wifi or mobile data. Also I am unsure about upload and download speeds using the cloud versus a fast portable SSD (backed up, of course).
Am I missing something?
Best wishes,
Jonathan
