the Ti has an auto sending feature on the ethernet port, so no cross 
over cable is needed.

make sure you set up a 'guest' account (control panel: file sharing) 
on the 6400 that has read privileges so you can copy files over. i 
haven't had to do this in a while, but the Ti may need to be booted 
first.

also, make a back up, *just in case*.
