Hard Drive
How do I transfer data from one hard drive to my new hard drive?
I have a mac powerbook G4 and it has a 80 gb hard drive in it. I recently purchased a 500 GB hard drive and want to transfer all of my files and operating system to my 500gb hard drive. Is that possible, or do I need to just install the hard drive and partition it with a clean copy of Leopard? Any help would be great!
Not familiar with Apple products.
One way you could do it is to take out the Hard Disk and get someone to clone it to the 500GB drive using a Windows PC and Norton Ghost software.
Then just replace the 500GB drive in the Mac and it should work.
Otherwise, you could place the 500GB in the Mac and install the OS and applications, then use a USB adapter to connect the 80GB as an external drive and copy the files into the 500GB drive.
After that, you can reformat the 80GB and use it as an external hard drive for backing up your data.
