You might try something like a ZIP drive. I've had GREAT luck with my
Fujitsu magneto optical drive. Alas, those puppies have gone obsolete.
CDROMs come to mind as a means for really large files. You could find
an old hard disk that's too small to be useful for anything real and
install it as a transfer drive with a FAT filesystem of some sort.
The large files I'm talking about don't even fit on a DVD, let alone a CD. A zip drive would only do the trick if there was a common shared file system, and they're far too small and far too slow anyway. I've got the ext2fsd driver working (thanks Dennis), but I shall look into UDF (thanks Bob), that does sound kinda promising.
