The only problem. The old PC is, well, old and has no SATA slots.

Plus, the file system on the HD in question (the "busted" one) has some problems with it and not all the files are accessible. I'm going to run a "chkdsk" on it to see what happens, but I want to clone the disk to the new drive so that if anything does go tits-up (as with experience from last time when I did do a "chkdsk" on what appeared to be a dodgy drive), it chucked all the data it found into a found.000 folder and munged up the names.
