    Problem No. 1

    I am trying to figure out how can I transfer information from one HDD that's in my laptop, to another HDD, that I plan on replacing the current
    one in
    my laptop with.

    if its linux ?

    tarball it

    Is there something I can buy to make the HDD active, able to transfer files to?

    pariton magic

    Looking for something that's not too costly.

    write your own problem ?

    sysresqueuecd, install this on usb stick, boot it, now tarball it from the harddisk you like to recovery data from

    google it

    and paragon magic is linux aswell but needs gui on linux, just like it does on windows, windows version handle linux partion natively

    other options instll e2filesystem on windows, mount linux partions natively and
    backup data

    what is best for you work depends on what data to recovery

    I paid for Insync a few months ago. It 'kinda' worked. One day it stopped making backups to my google drive. I'm still looking for a backup (gui based, and can be ran unattended) that I can make backups from linux to google drive. --- SBBSecho 3.11-Linux

    will you really sit there and see it sync ? :)

    best option with non maintained is to get synology nas, and use cloud sync there

    I have dropbox too, but I don't have a lot of space with it. I have 4 gigs on google cloud that I'm paying for. I got a package deal with something else I bought a few years back. I've 'tried' a few shareware linux backup programs. there WAS one I wish I could remember the name. it had options for google drive, but was only available if you paid for it. I was tempted to pay, but I'd
    have to have pay for something only to find out it doesn't work.
