 It's fast, it's easyNov 09, 2009
By Kaye A. Thomas
This was by far the easiest of many computer migrations I've done, partly due to improvements in the Windows Easy Transfer software and partly due to the cable. Be sure to install all your software on the new computer before doing the transfer so your software settings can be transferred. That's especially handy for Outlook. One item that doesn't move: fonts. If you've acquired additional fonts beyond the ones that come with Windows, you'll have to move those separately, so be sure to get them before you recycle the old computer.

 Be sure to set a system Restore Point before using!Dec 24, 2009
By Steven J. Gobat
The product worked as advertised, simple and quick. Unfortunately some programs on the new computer disappeared during the process including Internet Explorer. They were nowhere to be found on the new computer after the transfer. Luckily I had set a System Restore Point just before beginning the process so I reset the Restore Point and all missing programs magically reappeared and all the data from the old computer was there also.

The main thing to buy besides the computer with Windows 7, is the Belkin Easy Transfer cableNov 08, 2009
By Sam
"pc pro"
I've gone through many other upgrades, before, but this was the easiest.
This cable copied over from my old computer running under Windows XP, all of my folders, documents, spread sheets, music, and pictures, to my new computer running Windows 7.
It also brought over my old PC's settings and shortcuts. The thing that most pleasantly
suprised me is that it pulled in my entire Outlook, totally intact, with all folders and settings, including the POP settings with complete immediate connectivity to the YAHOO mail server!!!
The only problem I encountered, was that it took a few times for the 2 PCs to get connected to each other, but once it got going, it worked well beyond all of my expectations.

useful deviceDec 09, 2009
By Thomas J. Kroto
if you have lots of data on your old XP or VISTA computer this device and software will transfer it to your new windows 7 computer. I transferred 10 gigs in 18 minutes.

Works, with some quirks - be patientDec 05, 2009
By Andrea B.
Used this to transfer files from an XP desktop and an XP laptop to their new W7 counterparts. The desktop worked without a glitch. The laptop transfer got stuck the first time at the "trying to connect" screen. I went back, unplugged and replugged the cable, and it worked. All files and preferences transferred in both cases and, as far as I could tell by checking basic properties and a few individual files, intact. Some Firefox bookmarks did not transfer for some reason, but no biggie. (That said, I am keeping the old laptop and desktop for a while until I feel confident all the crucial stuff on the new PCs is accessible.)
Overall, this gizmo makes a long and potentially painful operation very straightforward, for a total of 20 bucks. Definitely worth it, especially if you plan to migrate several computers (I have 2 more to go).
