steps for transferring data from one hard drive to another
i'd like to transfer some music files from one of my hard drives to another. the hard drive i'd like to transfer from has WinXP built in, the one i want to trasfer to (also the computer i'm going to use for the transfer) has ME. is that ok? can i just plug in the XP hard drive as a slave drive to the ME computer, then go into my computer, and pull the files from one place to another?

Should being the oprative word there... I had trouble doing EXACTLY that a week or so ago... My prob was that the machine did not want the see the xp drive which was sata while the computer was running off the ide winME drive. I booted from the xp drive which luckily worked with out blue screening and then was able to move the data using xp and the ide drive still with the jumper on master but acting as slave as far as the OS was concerned

If you have a CD writer or a DVD writer just go buy a CDRW or DVDRW and start transfering. I Used to get songs from my boyfriends computer that way. He just bought a external hard drive so he lets me use that now.
