Product: Designjet 5000PS
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

I used to have detailed instructions on how to successfully clone a Designjet HDD for a 5XXX printer but seem to have lost it in a hard drive meltdown.  Does anyone happen to have that info stuffed away somewhere?  It's been a few years since it's been posted and doing a search didn't bring any results.

 

I know it's not as easy as just copying the files from one hdd to another.  Have to have the correct size drive, etc.  I think HP uses a different format than usual.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I don't work for HP....I just repair their printers.
