    Hi all, happy crimbo by the way...

    Anyway i have an older 9200T which is still being used in the bedroom now and again and hold a good fair few movies i'd like to keep (still on old original 160GB drive), but i'd like to swap that out for another 500GB Seagate pipelines and i have 2 of these to choose from, one is a
    P/N 9GW132-012
    Firmware SC13
    Date Code: 10495
    Site Code: SU

    and the other drive which is brand new and came out of a Humax PVR
    P/N 9GW132-510
    Firmware SC41
    Date Code: 13077
    Site Code: WU

    Now i know both are SATA and will need the Startech IDE2SAT2 part, but what i want to know is how do i go about moving the data from the 160GB drive to the newer 500GB drive?

    I have checked the FAQ and found nothing about this, I only run windows 7 U x64 macines so hopefully i can do it with that

    Format the new drive in the 9200T then connect both drives to your PC and use humaxrw to copy across

    Thanks Luke, will this work on 64 bit machines as it says it has been designed for 32 bit machines?

    Does anyone know of a decent tutorial for running this process or is it a simple copy *.* to *.* using the right drive letters of course?
