Okay well I got my new 500Gb hard drive to which I have already copied over my music, pictures, videos, and school work. Now I just downloaded SuperDuper and was going to set up a scheduled backup of my entire hard drive as a disk image.
I didn't know that my drive had to be formated for Mac. Right now I have it as FAT32 so that if I wanted to I would be able to hook it up to my old PC and back up some other files on there that I don't have on my Mac yet. I would really feel a lot safer if I could do a complete image backup of my MBP's hard drive, but I don't know if I want to reformat the hard drive. I guess I could always grab the little stuff off of my old PC and put it on my flash drive, then pop the flash drive into my Mac and transfer it from there. Maybe I should just reformat the external so that I can do scheduled backups with SuperDuper.
Any advice guys? I don't want to partition the drive either as one being FAT32 and the other being the Mac file system.
