Hey guys,
I'm in the process of trying to upgrade my music pc. I've currently got two seagate 80 gig sata hard drives that are almost full! Each hd is partitioned into two 40gig partitions; hd #1 drives "c", "d", and hd #2 is drive "e", "f" with the dvd burner as drive "g". Drive "c" is the OS (win xp pro w/srvc pack1) and the asstd programs like Sonar, Reason, Waves, etc. Drive "d" is the project folders for the different programs. Drive "e" is the samples for progams like Atmosphere, DFH, Reason, etc. And drive "f" is for working on projects like vegas video and converting my vhs tape collection into dvd (very large files). I just purchased EZ drummer and upgraded to Guitar Rig3....and putting those two programs almost fills up my "c" drive completely!
My idea is to replace the two 80gig hd's with two 160 gig hd's partitioned into 2) 80 gig partitions each..but the sticky point is how to "image" my existing drives onto the bigger drives without having to reload everything..if its possible.
This computer is not connected to the internet (on purpose!) so its a pain in the a$$ to reauthorize my apps.
Any ideas would be appreciated!
Also Guitar rig 3 says requires srvc pack2...my system is running great as is with srvc pack 1..I really don't want to screw it up with srvc pack 2 if I don't have to!
