Hi Jason

Thanks for the good thought, i do not know who that person, to meet early, could  be?. If you will be around Thursday lunch get things rolling, under 300Gb. or wait till later in the week, see how things "shake out", another meeting is okay, the ssd has arrived I have a usb adapter,

 Best a

Hi a

I highly recommend coming to a meeting to get this done in person. For something like this its good to get confirmation that someone is willing and able to help you at the meeting. It would also be good to meet this person early to allow time for such a migration. I might be able to be this person next week but my days are so crazy its hard to say what time I would be able to get to the meeting.
