Hi Charlie,
My old XP machine is still fine, but I was running out of HD space, so I
moved all of my photo images to an external eSATA drive. I did this by
creating target folders on the new drive, and then using the Edit>Copy to
Folder feature to copy all of my material to the new HD. Now, when I replace
the old machine, I just have to connect the eSATA drive to the new machine.
This may be extra work for you, but it is not difficult to do.
