Why is there even talk of this? He has 3 drives now, he will have 4, 4 drives fit nicely on 2 IDE channels. HE DOESN'T HAVE TO DO ANY COPYING OF DATA UNLESS HE WANTS TO. Basically he just has 120 more gigs free and the only difference is now he just has a different drive letter that files are stored on.
Ok what he says in his first post, he wants to transfer data, but he hasn't posted back so we don't know if he even knew of the option I presented. But if you just want to transfer data, you can still do it my way, it won't work for installed programs because of the registry, but everything else will.
