Question damm WD hard drive!!

Mandrake 10 dosnt seam to like my 40 gb WD hard drive, i got everything to work on my 30gb Maxtor but it is only a 5400, slow to say the leats. I do have a 40gb Maxtor 7200 but it has my xp system on it, and i need that to work on. Need IE for a side job, wont work in mozilla. The WD works fine under windows and has hosted the Windows system in the past (4 months ago). I am probly going to tranfer the data from the maxtor to the WD and put linux on the 40gb 7200 Maxtor drive. Does anyone know of a easy app that can do the tranfer for me??
