Hard drive swop and copying files over....

Hard drive swop and copying files over....
Just a quick question. My 500gig drive in the a200 is full. I am awaiting a new 2tb hard drive and a sata caddy to put the 500 gig drive in.

Question is when I have put the 2tb in the a200 and its all formatted, Will the a200 see the data on the 500gig that will be in the external caddy ??

Cheers Paul

RE: Hard drive swop and copying files over....
If the external caddy has USB2.0....yes..

why not just format the 2GB and stick that in the caddy?


PCH-A100/A210/C200/A400 500GB EXT3 HDD<-->HDMIv1.3<-->Onkyo TX-NR1010<-->HDMIv1.3<-->Panasonic TX-P46S10
13 NTFS USB drives on 3 hubs attached to the A300, 3 Seagate blackarmour NAS 3TB


The inability to setup and configure the NMT should not be disguised as a defect of the box

The 500gig drive is an WD enterprise edition drive. Its very fast but generates a lot of heat. The 2TB drive is a seagate green drive with the 5900rpm spin speed so runs a lot cooler and quieter.
Hence I want that in the A200 and the 500 gig in the caddy. Plus when the 500gig is in the caddy, I have the option of esata, which makes swopping files with a mate very fast and easy.

Cheers
