(It's funny how I can see solutions to others' problems sometimes, but if it's my problem my mind goes blank. 'Can't see the forest for the trees' as an old friend used to say.) If I use ms backup, it will compress it making 4 gig of stuff to about 1.2 gig backup. (I used to backup my 4 - 6 gigs of windows stuff and that's about how big it was after). I'm fairly sure there's enough room on hda for the backup of hdb. So I could probably just do it from it's present location, you think? Thanks for the help, -s
