well then borrow/buy a screw driver lol. It's by far the fastest way to do it and it's free.

Do you have a wireless router or some way for the laptop to connect to your wired network? What OS is running on the laptop and desktop?

Are they both connected to you router?
OK, I didn't word that well. Make the HDD on the machine that has the data a shared resource. Then map that drive on your other machine. Now you can copy everything on it to your hearts content.

If you have a CAT5 (I think) cable laying around you might be able to network the computer by plugging em into each other. If not try sharing the files over the network, then just copy, paste and wait.

100gb wireless transfer sounds like it would take a ridiculously long time. Does you laptop have gigabit? If it does then connect it directly to the PC.
