I have a 160GB Macbook Pro but as a designer I need more GB to store my files. I leave my music and photos on the computer harddrive and then have a portable 320GB external hard drive which I save all my work on.

I have purchased an additional 1TB hard drive so that I can backup both the computer and the 320GB ext hard drive to so that if I lose the portable one I still have a backup. However I cannot seem to backup from one ext hard drive to another. Having spoken to numerous people on the phone (Western Digital, Mac, PC, World etc), they all say I need some 3rd party software but noone knows what..?! Searching the internet hasn't helped me either s Im hoping someone reading this might know a way I can solve this issue...?

Configuration: Mac OS X
Safari 525.27.1

Hi,
try to copy the data manually from one drive to another.
this will certainly take some time but at least your data will be copied.
