I'm just getting started setting up my MacPro - moving from a dual 533 G4. I have 3 HDs in the G4 and need to move everything over to new hard drives in the MP. Problem is they are old drives ATA 133 and won't fit in the MP.

I tried target Firewire Disc Mode to move files over from HDs 2 and 3 but only the master (boot drive appears. Is this normal? Can I access the other HDs another way through firewire or network cable?

I put in a raptor 150 and CCC the stock apple HD to it. Once I erase the stock HD, is there anything else I need to do to the Raptor for it to be recognized as the new master drive? I'm a little nervous erasing the stock drive!

thanks
