Select them all and then drag to the D folder on your new drive. All the files will be copied. It will probably take several minutes. For many years disk dirve manufacturers have cheated. An 80Gb disk would only be 76Gb of real space. They took 1 Gb to be 1 million bytes, when really it should be 1024 x 1024, which comes to more than 1 Million. Computers work in binary numbers, not decimal. I was surprised to find that the 300Gb disk that I bought recently was really 300Gb of usable space, not "short measure".
