Not sure if this is possible but...

I'm running a little bit lower on disc space than I like to and wanted to know if it is possible to move my collection to another drive without having to re-download all my content. I have a ZunePass. Any ideas?

Hmm...

You could either go ahead and burn your music to disks and rip it onto the other comp or, you could probably buy a Portable Hard Drive and put your stuff on it, then transfer it over to the other comp. Not sure if that would work as I don't have an HDD, can anyone verify it?

If you have the other hard drive hooked up to the same PC you can simply copy and paste it over, it shouldn't be an issue...

I think you should be able to as well, but note that the songs downloaded off the zune pass are tied to your computer and can't be used elsewhere.

Heck, you do know you can even move the entire My Music (XP) or Music (Vista) folder to another hard drive? My current music folder location is on the storage drive and for the Zune software all you have to do is go in and change the location of the folders its supposed to look for music in but if you move the entire music folder it should adjust to its new location.

Entire folder means moving Music (Vista) or My Music (XP) with a simple cut and paste over to the other hard drive.
