What I ended up doing essentially copied my 160GB internal disk onto the first 160GB of a new 2TB internal disk. (If you're interested in details, I used dvrBARS to backup the internal disk to first.vhd and the external disk to second.vhd, and then I restored first.vhd onto the 2TB disk. I had planned to do things a bit differently but I had troubles like the PC I was doing the backup on crashed part way through the backup of the external drive three times in a row, probably due to PC hardware issues. I also tried WinMFS but have troubles with that.)
So currently I have both internal disk and external disk. If I can work out how, I want to move the 2 MFS partitions on the external 1TB disk onto some of the unused space on the 2TB internal disk so I can stop using the external disk (except perhaps as a one-off backup).
That will reduce risks like losing recordings due to external drive failure, and simpilify a number of things. (Like dvrBARS and I think WinMFS will only do a truncated backup when all drives are connected.)
