Then return it to Master and re-install it to your old PC. You don't mention what OS but if using Windows XP it's pretty much a no brainer as the OS will recognize the new drive. If you decide to go this route give me your phone # and I'll explain in depth.

Now I have the challenge of moving about 15-20 GB of data (mostly pictures) from the old PC to the new one. The only obvious solution I can think of is to copy the files to CD-RW discs on the old PC, copy the disc onto the new PC and repeat the process until all files are moved. This is of course a rather laborious process, so I wonder if there is some easy software out there which would for example allow me to connect the two computers via the serial or UBS ports and just transfer the files directly. I appreciate any suggestions.
