[QUOTE="RavingMac, post: 1484574, member: 45350"] If I understood you right, you have but haven't yet installed a new HD. If that is the case, IMO, the best and easiest thing is to get an external HD case (they are cheap and available for around $20-$30) and then use Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper (I use CCC) to clone your old drive to your new one. Test your clone by booting of of it, and if all went well you can swap the drives. At the end you can use your old HD in the external case for data files and backups. [/QUOTE]
