I've asked this before I believe, and I've just done a (very) cursory online search, but would feel happier in my jittery technophobe state asking someone I can trust.
So here it is: currently got two 500GB HDs which are now both crammed full of music. One backs up the other. The plan is to simply (!) replace each with a 1 or 2TB hard drive.
How do I do this without losing any data or messing up anything? It's all synced to my iTunes library and the drives are external to an iMac (not sure which model, if that has any bearing on proceedings).
Help and advice in the form of a nice, simplified walk through would be much appreciated.
Oh, is there any issue with make/type of drive. My Mac-literate, but non-audio friendly mate says FireWire 800 is the way to go. I currently have one or maybe both drives connected this way.
