[QUOTE="BIG D 04, post: 385041, member: 21762"] I think I'm going to take the Plunge and swap my Internal Hard Drive in my iMac so I have a few questions if people don't mind. [LIST=1] [*]What Drive Manufacturer/Drive Spec/ other useful info to look for when buying the Internal Drive? [*]Would I be better transferring or creating an Image of my Current Drive to move on my New One? [*]How would I got about getting this Image on my New Drive? [*]Any guides out there that you think I might find useful? [*]Is it worth portioning Large Hard Drives especially the one containing the OS? [/LIST] Thanks for any help you can offer. Cheers edit: A Bit of Infor about my Current Setup or reasons behind it all. Well basically at the moment I have a 250Gb Hard Drive and I have run out of room, following many clearances but I have got to the point where I can delete no more. So I was considering getting a 750GB Internal SATA II Drive just wondering about Problems, Help Info or anything really that could aid me in doing this. [/QUOTE]
