What is the best way to transfer my data from my old HDD to this hard drive before installing?
I was looking into getting an external enclosure like this one -- http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other World Computing/MOTGSU2/ -- but I am worried that it won't be able to power the Seagate.
Alternatively, I could get this -- http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Newer Technology/U2NV2SPATA/ -- but it looks ugly and the power supply is just too big for my taste.
I just read on the 7200.4 specs and it states 1AMP at start up and I believe USB can handle a max of 5V and 100mA.
