    I would buy a USB SATA adapter, swap over the hard drives and then plug the old one into a usb port.

    You can then telnet into the box and copy the files across.

    Wouldn't that mean transferring 1TB of data across the network just to get it back to the same machine?

    Did mine by FTP (wired LAN) and it took forever.
