That externals are turning out to be less reliable than anyone expected. Sure, do what you want but be sure that anything that is not backed up is something you can lose.

I plan to copy my record albums directly onto my desktop hard drive. I will then copy them onto an external hard drive. I would like to copy all of the files from the first external hard drive onto a 2nd external hard drive. Can this be accomplished? I don't want to keep the info on my desktop hard drive as it is not that large and I plan to erase it once I have it on the external hard drive. I don't have two external hard drives at this time but I have thought I could buy two and take turns loading the files onto each one,however I thought if I have an external hard drive with 300-500 or more gigs of music it would be easier to copy from one hard drive to another and I could give the one away to a friend who gave me the albums to begin with. Any thoughts? Thanks.
