I have a 15 gig HD with tons of anime on it, and I plan on slaving it to my NFTS 80 gig under WinXP, transferring the files, then unplugging the 15 gig drive and using only the 80 giger.

Sound cool? Can FAT32 files goto NFTS without problem? (only interested in a one way)

Thanks.

It's not so much the original disk type, but it's more the operating system under which you'll be accessing the files.

Hmm....

Can I transfer files from a NFTS XP to FAT32 Win95B?

I'm doing some encode's on my mom's comp, but it ain't got a burner. Thinking 'bout slaving my 15 gig to it real quik and transferring. Is that a go?

If you're booting into a XP system, then you will be able to. But if you're booting into the Win95 system, then it won't work, as Win95 will not be able to read the NTFS partition.
