Introduction

  • The fastest way to copy files between two Raspberry Pi computers is with Secure Copy (scp)[1].
  • This method is executed from the Terminal and hence eliminates the overhead of a GUI application.
  • It is both fast and secure.

Prerequisites

  • In this lesson it is assumed that Secure Shell (SSH) has been enabled on both computers.
