Just ordered a new unit - am out of space on the present one, and its Win98 with unsupported drivers, etc. Here's my question - hope someone has helpful suggestions.
I have two drives in the present computer: C (13G), which has my OS, lots of miscellaneous program files and about 2000 music files, and D, which is a 40G dedicated music drive, now completely full.
My initial thought was to cannibalize the D and install it in the new unit as a D. That works OK. Question is, what do I do with the contents of the C, and how?
One possibility is AlohaBob, which has received some pretty good reviews, and can be enabled for selective data migration. Have any of you used it? Are there easier alternatives I'm missing?
Another question: is it better to attempt to move my existing copy of MJ to the new unit, and if so, what do I need to do to preserve settings and data that I've input to the various fields?
I'm a rookie when it comes to networking, so will need pretty basic input. Will be out of town when the new unit arrives, and don't have to grapple with this for about three weeks. Am grateful for any input users can give me.
Thanks....HTH
PS: If I ever get it up and running, will have 240G storage, plus the D (if I move it), for a total of 280G.
