Transfer files from One Dedicated Server to another

If you are trying to figure out how to move or transfer files from one dedicated server to another , then this tutorial is for you. But this tutorial only helps if both servers are windows based. Any windows servers will work like windows 2008 web edition , windows 2008 R2 standard etc.
I guess you have remote desktop access to both of your dedicated servers.

Step 1

Use remote desktop connection to login to one of your servers.
(Note:For simplicity login to server which has the data to be moved.)
