Server.Transfer is for intra-site communication where as Response.Redirect is for inter-site communtication.
Response.Redirect is slow as compared to Server.Transfer
User knows about the redirection of page in Response.Redirect as the URL changes but it is not so in Server.Transfer.

Transfer is more efficient over the Response.Redirect because Response.Redirect causes a round trip to server as the page is processed once again on the client and a request is made to server there after.
