can I swap data by use of external hard drive enclosure.
Hope I have given this thread the right description.
This is the situation.
I have today removed the hard drive "Seagate SATA 500 GB " from my old (dead) DELL Inspiron M 501R laptop ( windows 7 SP 1 )
I am going to buy an external enclosure to move all the data ( hopefully ) to my other HP windows 7 SP 1 professional laptop.
When I succeed in this and all the data from the DELL are on the HP, could I then afterwards remove all the old data from the HP on the hard drive from the DELL. In other words, could I do a 100% swap ?
Make the HP an windows 7 SP 1 ?
I would first formate the DELL hard drive completely clean. ( After successfully having transferred EVERYTHING to the HP. )
Could I do this by using Macrium Reflect ?
Is this a silly idea ?
You might ask why ? Just so that if it does not work I can move it all back ?
Thanks for any help in advance.:)
Cheers,
