Hi Adrian.
Are you using the new hard drive as a backup to the first and therefore
needing to keep both up to date regularly or just replacing your older hard
drive? If you're just replacing then I don't think there's anything quicker
than connecting both drives to your laptop USB ports and using copy and
paste as already suggested. However, if you're wanting to keep both in sync
then try Karen's Replicator. I use this program all the time to keep my
backup external hard drive up to date with changes made to my primary
external hard drive. It's much faster to let Replicator find the changes
and update the backup drive than copying 400GB every now and then.
Regards.
Kevin

Subject: [access-uk] transferring lots of data
Hi
I would like to get a second external hard drive but I'm not sure how to
transfer or copy a lot of data from one external drive to another. I use a
laptop, there are three built in usb ports, but I am also using a pcimcia
card which gives me another four usb ports. What is the best way of
connecting the second drive to my pc?
Copying 90 plus gigs of data would take a while. Is there a quick way of
doing this?
Regards
Adrien
