[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1461343, member: 56379"] I usually like to use a program called "Carbon Copy Cloner" or "Super Duper" for this purpose. - It makes an exact copy/clone of your HD as it is today. - You install the new HD into the Mini. - Then boot the Mini (with the new/empty HD) from an external HD with the "cloned" HD on it. - Then "clone" the contents of the external HD back to the Mini's new HD. Easy & done!:) - Nick p.s. Thread moved to more appropriate sub-forum. Not a 'Switcher Hangout" topic. [/QUOTE]
