SSD degradation from extHDD data exchange?
I am looking into getting an SSD and am constantly reminded that now warranties are typically capped on data allowance averages e.g. 40GB per day. With the new SSD I am to get a whole new computer and that means access to advanced interfaces that I've not had before. I have a number of HDDs with FW800 and eSATA (okay, a Mac Mini doesn't have that) which I plan to transfer the data from to new HDDs via the likes of Thunderbolt.
My concern is that exchanging one HDD of 500GB to another will impact on the SSD in the main computer? I have been told that under Windows this does not occur, that the only data affected are the external HDDs themselves.
