I've been stalling in getting a new computer. Mine was old. Really old (13 years or something). And it was becoming a major pain. The internet would often stop working for a while. Photos would take forever to load. Then it crashed a couple times.
Finally I caved and ordered a computer. A refurbished one. When I tried to transfer the data over, to my astonishment the storage on the new computer was only about 1/4 of my ancient computer. So I had to pack all the pieces up in their box again and take it to the store to return it. Then I went home and ordered a different computer. An older model than the first one I'd ordered, but it was still a few hundred dollars more expensive. Yeesh.
I was pretty nervous as I did the backup, because of the trouble with the old computer and the fact that I already had to return one computer. But after letting it sync overnight, the transfer seems to have gone great.
Now I've started the long process of making sure that everything transferred ok. Talk about tedious. I've so far found one file that hasn't come over. Maybe it was a weird format. I'll figure it out.
