I'm buying a new HD and this is what I want to do (in summary, explanations
below):
1) Install new HD in current computer running windows 2000, call it "C:"
2) Old "C:" should be called "D:" but it will remain as the drive with the
operating system
3) Copy everything from old drive to new drive except operating system; work
for one month with this configuration
4) On a new computer, operating system unknow but probably XP, install the
new hard drive as "C:" and install the operating system on it *without
losing its files*!
Can I do that and how? Basically I'm moving out in about 2 months and I want
to take everything with me. I have some programs that are 'device
dependent', that's why I want to keep 'C:' for the new hard drive.
And while we're at it, what is the best (fast/reliable) 250GB+ harde drive
under $300?
Thanks!
