Craig,

As long as you maintain the directory structure, you can move selected 
files and folders to a new machine.  Just make sure you recreate the 
2005 or 2006 folder and copy the month/day folders under them.  Amaseis 
can scroll back through non-continuous data with no problems.

I agree that moving the large events is likely your most efficient 
method.  However, this will at least save space on your new machine!

Good Luck-
