How to transfer data from one hard drive to another?

I don't know how and has been upgraded to a new hard drive...

Hello

Well, it may be quite simple, if you install the new OS in the new drive.

Then you connect the older HARD drive, and you should be able to explore the contents of the HARD drive in windows and copy the data from the old disk to the new. Be careful with what is selected in the BIOS startup disk.

But depends on the unit you have, because you might end up having several types of questions.

You can also use any kind of external card, depends on the type of connection of HARD drive you have and for example, if its SATA, you can simply use a SATA to USB adapter.

Let me know if this helped.

Thank you

  • How to copy data from one hard drive to another after the upgrade?

    I have a HP e9220y, and I recently bought a new hard drive for it. There is nothing wrong with the former, but this one has a 64 MB cache and 7200 RPM so I hope it will be a little faster. I installed it and it works fine, but I want to copy all data from the old disk to the new so I can start everything off the faster hard drive and I seem to have a bit of doing wrong. I can't just copy and paste because of the Windows system files that are used. And last night when I set up Windows backup, and went to bed, when I thought it that Windows has recovered from a stop unexpected, rebooted, and only 2 GB of data saved obtained.

    What is the best way to move all the data from the old drive to the new drive, make it the default C: drive and move partitions system and factory_image as well? Thank you!

    (1) If your old drive and the new drive is Seagate or Western Digital, then free House with their cloning software.

    (2) before starting the clone process, I found best to perform a disk cleanup and defragmentation.

    Cloning software to copy the two partitions. Example:

    Old drive 250 GB formatted to 232 C: created 220 and 12 GB D:

    New 1000GO drive formatted to 931 GB created 919 GB C: and D: to 12 GB

    The "Seagate disc Wizard" cloning software will let create you a clone automatic or manual partition resizing.

    The two modes to offer an overview of the actions before commit you. The manual on this page of Seagate (PDF) is 68 pages.

    After the cloning process he complete, all you have to do is swap on the disks. Besure to connect your new disc on the original motherboard SATA port.

  • Transfer from one hard drive to another

    I transferred all my music from one hard disk to another. I want to be able to play these files from the new location without redownloading everything iTunes game or duplication of entries for the itunes files.  At the moment Itunes shows my entire library with the icon for download next to him. If I drag and drop files from the new location to Itunes, it creates duplicate entries.  I could re - download the entire library through itunes game, but it would be a big waste of time. I wish I could tell itunes to search my library in the new location of the directory. Is this possible?

    For general information, see make a library of portable split . If the library was already divided and you have moved the content from one disk to the other you can fix things by reassigning drive letters. Otherwise if you copy the library files and place inside press it then it should be as if you moved a portable library as a unit and everything should be back in place.

  • Help: How to transfer data from one form to another form form

    Hello:

    I was wondering how / if it is possible to transfer data from form from one form to another form. I create a flow of forms, which are as follows: form of Incident report-> form of risk analysis-> error-> report form decision support survey Standard-> report form of risk control-> form of mitigation-> etc... You get the gist. It would be very time-consuming to constantly transfer the standard who, what, when, where and how from one form to the other. I was wondering how do? I have looked around on the net and this forum and couldn't find a tutorial or a guide? Is this possible with Adobe forms?

    I use a XML schema for the form to preload a list of employees and the standard list information and then publish the form to submit in PDF format for opening and tracking form mobile device. I notice that I can export the data in a form that is distributed in XML but I can't import in a distributed form. I'm a newb with code, but may contain a little of my own.

    An example of how to achieve this with a field name or something would be greatly appreciated! If you need anything, or a copy of the forms let me know!

    Thank you kindly,

    Al

    Hi Al,.

    I have here an example where the data in a single form are 'communicated' to other forms. Please note that there are specific script in each of the forms. It's a work in progress and one day I'll come back make a more polished example: http://assure.ly/qQivbm.

    Despite the title, this video explains how to MOVE pictures, not how to copy.

    There is no way to make copies of the photos using Lightroom, you can move the photos using Lightroom.

    Lightroom will result in no records per day, except when you import photos. If I could make a suggestion, leave your files in the same "mess" they are in now and use the keywords and other metadata to allow you to organize and search.

  • Transfer Windows 7 OS from one hard drive to another

    I think of buying a new hard drive soon, but stumbled upon this question.

    I currently have a genuine Windows 7 operating system installed on my computer. I had initially installed Windows Vista , but I had bought and installed a Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade.
    If I haven't bought a new hard drive (in the sense of higher data transfer rate), would I be able to pass all of my files and my disk Windows 7 operating system hard current to the new hard drive?
    Or I have to buy another copy of the 'easy transfer' Windows 7 Edition Home Premium and files?

    If you move a drive hard mechanical to another mechanical disk, so long that the reader who is replaced, equal or superior in size, it must be able to back up your installation and restore it on the new drive.

    Old disk 60Go new 320 GB drive.  I want to do the new replacement for the old disk drive.

    Use disk cloning software.

    The safest way is to use an external hard drive enclosure to maintain the new disc during the cloning operation.  These come with interfaces USB or e-SATA to IDE or SATA interfaces for the drive and the computer.  Be sure to get the correct type.  If you have an available internal drive Bay, you can put the new drive it for the cloning operation, but do NOT restart with two connected drives.  After everything was settled down, you can mount the old disk of 60 GB inside, format and use it for storage of backup.

    Cloning (copy to disc) software may have been bundled with your new drive or may be accessed free of charge from the manufacturer of the new command.

    How to transfer data from laptop to external hard drive?

    my model is vgn-cr323.

    Thanks in advance

    Let me provide you with General information on how you can transfer data from your computer to an external drive.

    To transfer the data, plug the USB cable into the correct port. Usually, your computer will know that he has a new disc attached and a pop box up will warn you. It will scan to determine what to do with the new connection and your computer will assign a drive letter (for example, drive G: and so on.) This will allow you to transfer data to the external hard drive just like you would move files on your internal hard drive.

    Once you have the USB cable plugged into your computers port (and the other end plugs into the external drive) you can now start to save files you want on the external hard drive.

    Open the item (s) or folder (s) you want to transfer or save on your external hard drive. There are two ways to save external hard disk 1). If you have only one or two things to save, you can open each item, click on file / record under... and choose the letter/drive (for example, drive G corresponding to that of your external hard drive, click Save.) This he recorded on the external hard drive.

  • Transfer data to external hard drive from XP to Vista

    How would I be able to transfer data from a XP hard drive (which is in an external case) on my new laptop with Windows Vista? Please let me know. Thank you very much.

    original title: I have a XP hard drive in an external case, and I would like to transfer the data on Windows Vista.

    There are several options:

    External drive is already connected via USB?  Your new computer sees the old disk when you open Explorer?  Is the drive external HARD in the format identical to the new machine Vista (probably NtfS)?  If this isn't the case, you must first convert the external hard drive to NTFS.  http://technet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb456984.aspx (although written for XP, it works with Vista as well).

    If so, create a new folder on the new disc called 'From Old Computer'. Go to the old drive. Now * COPY * ("hold") the files to the new folder that you created. After getting everything copied on you can turn off the computer and unplugging the old drive to protect its content - where everything is not going according to plan.

    Now you can take your time by placing the files copied, where you want that they finally reside on your new computer.

    If you have problems with 'Access denied', follow these steps on the external drive of the new computer:

    In Explorer, right-click on the drive in question and select Properties

    On the Security tab, click Advanced
    On the owner tab
    Select you realize if it isn't already and
    Check "Replace owner of subcontainers and objects".
    Click OK twice (close all dialog boxes)

    Defines you as the owner of every folder and file on the disk

    In Explorer, right-click on the drive in question and select Properties

    On the Security tab, add your account if it is not already there and set full access
    Click on apply
    Click on advanced
    Check "Replace permission on the child all the objects with...» »
    Click on apply

    If you do not see a Security tab, then turn off Simple file sharing (you may need to do in reconnedcting the count to the old XP machine - I'm not sure that this can be done through the new computer).  To do this, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/810881.  The same may be true if the nets and records are password protected (although using a different procedure to remove the password to protenctio similar to what lets you add it iin the first place.)

    If you have problems setting up the permissions or ownership on the disk external drive files and folders, some information here that might help:

    To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

    To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

    If the external hard drive is not USB but IDE instead, here is an article on two methods that work for transfer: http://www.wikihow.com/Transfer-Data-Between-Two-Hard-Drives.

    ==================================================================================================================

    I realide what follows is not what you asked, but if it is still possible, it might be a better solution than moving the data to the external hard drive.

    If the external hard drive has only the data and you want to transfer settings and data (and perhaps even of programs if they are compatible with Vista) from the old XP machine (if it is always present and contains information on the new computer (which is better because it also transfers your program and other parameters (and maybe your programs) as well as the data (or you can ignore the data if it is the same which is))) already on the external drive))), then use the transfer tool.  Here's how: http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles_tutorials/Migrating-Vista-using-Windows-Easy-Transfer.html#.  This is how I do the trasfer if I had to do it because it makes the implementation of the new computer much easier and faster.

    Here is another article on how to transfer data and settings from an XP machine to a new Vista computer using an external hard drive (although it discusses other methods as well): http://www.digitaltrends.com/how-to/how-to-transfer-your-data-from-xp-to-vista/

    Jere het another article on the use of Transsfer easy to pass data or parameters (and perhaps programs) from a XP computer to a Vista computer: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial138.html

    =====================================================================================================================

    I hope this helps.  If you have questions or problems on the way, do not forget to post back and get help.  It is best to do things right the first time.  And even once, I highly recommend using Easy Transfer (although this is not how you setup at the moment) for the transfer to get the new computer up and running much faster and easier.  The decision is yours.

    Good luck!
