I have a pretty old Maxtor Onetouch 300gb that's all of a sudden started misbehaving. It's throwing up crc errors and i/o device errors when I try to copy stuff off of it. But I can still access the files and play them (it's mostly music) and copy little files (sub 100kb) without any problems.
Now. I have an empty 1tb LaCie Big Disk sat here - all I want to do is get as much off of my dying hd onto the new one as possible before it finally pops it's clogs.
Is there any hope at all that this might work or shall I just take the Maxtor outside and bury it?
