Old Passport to New Passport

Hi everybody:manhappy:

I’m new to the forum. I just bought a new 2T My Passport for a new laptop. I have an older 1T My passport on which I have backed up all data from the old computer.

I will move the backed up data to the new computer.

Old computer running Windows 7 Home Edition. New computer running Windows 7 Pro.

I would like to use the new 2T as the backup and free up space on the 1T for data storage.

What is the best way to go about this? Anything to watch out for?

Thank you all in advance.:smiley:

A key question in here is “how was the data copied to the original drive?”

Regards,

By using the backup utility of WD Smartware.

Thanks.

Regards

If so, then I’d proceed to restore the original backup first and then resuming the backup with the new drive.

Thanks.
