A few weeks ago I bought a used G4/533 Digital Audio. This evening I had shut down the system to install a new 512MB RAM chip and a small hard drive on which I planned to install OS 9.2. When I started back up I got a message from DiskWarrior announcing a problem with the main drive that said something to the effect that my hard drive was about to fail.

Needless to say, I have not done any backups of this system. I don't even have all my software installed and configured to my liking yet!

What is the quickest safest way to copy my system over to another drive? I have used Carbon Copy Cloner in the past, and it looks like there is a Tiger version now.

The drive is a 40GB Maxtor. I am running OS 10.4.2. The system is currently shut down.

Looks like I better dig through the trash for that post from Harry about cheap hard drives from Fry's...
