[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1105415, member: 46727"] The hard drive access speeds should have nothing to do with the ability to import the movies without corruption. If anything, the newer 7200 RPM drive should be faster. It sounds like something may have gone wrong when restoring to the new hard drive from Time Machine. Perhaps iMovie, QT, or the files themselves did not restore correctly. Since you can boot with your old hard drive and everything imports OK and works, it may be a bad restore. You might have to make another Time Machine backup from your old hard drive and try the erase, reinstall, and restore process over again. [/QUOTE]
