[QUOTE="nvr_home, post: 1337933, member: 227484"] Hi Everybody! Just Joined Up - First time post - long time lurker. I have a MacBook Pro 4,1 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo and I would like to swap out the failing stock Fujitsu 200GB OEM Apple drive for a new one. The drive I would like to install is a Seagate 640GB drive that is out of a Seagate portable drive case. Is this possible? The portable drive is a Seagate GoFlex 640GB portable drive model STAA640600 How would you suggest I do the data transfer? I am fairly new to OS X Lion. I am going to upgrade to a 250GB+ SSD when my wallet allows, but for now this is all I can afford to do. BTW: I paid $54.00 at WallyWorld for this drive! what a deal! Thanks for your help. :D [/QUOTE]
