Whenever I get a new computer, I just remove the drive from the old computer 
and slap in in the new one, or in a USB case if you have one, but internal 
is faster.  Then is just shows up as a new drive and I copy what I want from 
one drive to the next.  Simple.  Of course, this will not work for installed 
software unless it is not too complex and all the files are in one folder. 
Not too many programs like this anymore.  But for data files and even 
favorites and other things, it is great.
