The LAN would be extremely slow....it would take forever...but it can be done,.....

I was figuring on doing the transfer while I wasn't around....I figure that for 16 hours on the average day, I can't be at my home PC (8 hours asleep and 8 hours or more at work), so I could just highlight a whole slew of files to be transferred during those times, and within a few days it would be done.

I don't have any experience with home networks though....do the transfers have to be attended, or would it work the way I am describing?

Why do you say that? The standard Network card is now 10/100, or a maximum speed of 10 megabits per second. With a properly configured network, he should be able to copy his files with no problem.
