My old Dell Latitude C640 has been acting weird lately, so I found a used Latitude D630. Since the C640 uses an ATA drive and the D630 uses a SATA drive, I bought a CMS enclosure with the BounceBack software and started a data transfer to a brand new 500Gb Western Digital SATA drive. The BounceBack Transfer screen has read 0% for the past five hours now, and the PC (understandably) doesn't want to run anything else. Other than the fact that the disk activity light on both the PC and the CMS enclosure are blinking furiously, I can't find any way to tell that any real disk copying has occurred. I guess I'll have to wait until the program (hopefully) completes to see if anything worthwhile has happened. I don't know what this program would act like if it were run on a more competent processor.
