[QUOTE="pfisher, post: 1276030, member: 209984"] I want to know if it is possible to copy the Home Directory- Documents, Music, Desktop, etc... to anther HD? Let me explain further, I have a PowerMac G4 running OS 10.4.11 on a 10gig drive. I installed an 80gig drive and installed OS 10.4.11 on this bigger drive which both 10 and 80 gig drives are presently running on this Mac. Obviously, the 80gig is the primary boot drive and for the moment the 10gig drive is the slave. I want to copy the Home Directory on the 10gig drive over to the 80gig drive. Ultimately, I want to remove the 10gig drive out of the equation. I believe I can just do a copy and paste of the contents in the 10gig Home Directory and paste them in the 80gig Home Directory without losing any data. I am probably answering my own question. I just want to make sure. [/QUOTE]
