There are things you can do to get your tapes and film ready for transfer!

Number your tapes. If there are dates and events written on the cassette, try to put them in some kind of order that you prefer; chronologically or by event.

2. Bag up your tapes by date or events. In you external hard drive, I can make folders according to how you bag them.

3. Look at your tapes and add dates. You know when Conner was born, but I don't! Add the date!

4. Over time writing fades. Look at your items and try to make clean any writing on the cassettes. Maybe you can read your mom's writing, but I can't!
