To make a long story short (hopefully), I have two computers. One is my HTPC, the other is my desktop/gaming system. The HTPC had a 60GB Quantom drive that died, and I bought a replacement WD 80GB 7200RPM (8MB Cache) drive to replace it. My desktop/gaming system has the same hard drive in it. I later discovered the 60GB drive that died was still under warranty, and they replaced it with an 80GB 7200RPM Maxtor (8MB Cache).
Now I'm running low on disk space on my main desktop/gaming system. Being somewhat of a profectionist, I'd like to have both identical WD hard drives in the desktop and put the Maxtor in the HTPC. The thing is, I don't want to have to format and reinstall everything on the HTPC. What's the easiest way to do this?
