Hi,
I want to copy all files I have on my old HD, a caviar 36400 (I think its from around 1997),
So I hooked it with a USB/IDE cable, booted my laptop with ubuntu (thought it would be more reliable then my vista), and connected it.
after 5 min, if finally recongized the HD, it is 2.1GB, and it shows the files and folders,
but when trying to copy it I get some I/O error files bigger then 32KB, and it creates them onlyas 32KB files on the destination HD (a WD 1TB external drive).
is due to different format systems? (maybe the old one is even fat16? i don't know),
if so, is there a solution for this? how can i transfer all the data correctly? thanks!
