| 135240 | 2003-04-12 07:54:00 | I am buying a new computer and i want to transfer all the files I have on my current machines 2 hard drives about 40 gb of files. What is the best way to transfer all these files?. I dont want to use ghost as it will take up to many disks | norrol (2154) | ||
| 135241 | 2003-04-12 08:23:00 | norrol If you are planning on keeping your present machine I would network the two and transfer the files that way. The second machine could then act as a backup. Oxie |

| 135242 | 2003-04-12 09:01:00 | And if Oxie's suggestion does not appeal or is not practical you could always pop a hard drive into the new computer to transfer the files from it to the new hard drive then pop it back into the old computer when finished. | Susan B (19) | ||
| 135243 | 2003-04-12 09:02:00 | The cheapest ($0) way, is to temporarily connect the old PC HDD(s) to a spare IDE cable (adjust for master/slave as required) on the new PC. Transfer files from each HDD one at a time. | godfather (25) | ||
