I did much like that, Jorgen. I just saved folders, reinstalled on another drive and replaced folders. It all went smoothly, zero issues, and I cleaned up 40gb or so.
I had migrated folders within itunes earlier and the new install recognized them on the new drive, so it went even smoother than I'd planned.
I'm right where I want to be, but I still have a boot issue. It's either this ASUS software running cool n quiet and overheating my cpu, or I have a short in one of my rails, or the ram is running at too low a voltage.
It likes to hang in Bios and sometimes booting Windows, but only when she's hot.
I'm building a reef water system right now, so this has got to wait. Usually a little time away puts the answer in my melon. I'll get it ironed out soon.
