Trying to copy some CDs to use on iPod; the CDs may have problems and iTunes may be misreporting them as problems writing to the external hard drive (where i chose to locate the iTunes folder. Which I'm moving, btw, for now? ...) - so I get this error that the external drive cannot be read from, written to... ow. (Finder has no such trouble, which is good...
so ... I reboot... and copy everything back over from the external to the new machine's main drive (sort it out later, though soon)... and will move default app folders away from the external drive until I've done a hardware test, etc. ...
but the pleasant has outweighed the negative, and included - for instance- that copying that 42gb (billion characters) of stuff of the external drive took one hour, not the 17 or so hours it took to get it on there in the first place. Yay for faster machines.
