migration of Maildir to new system. Also advice wanted on performance

Hi, Currently I am hosting my mail on an old box at home. It has quite a new disk though, an 80 GB WD. However, my Maildir is BIG (288 MB now) and it is DOGSLOW. Next week I will get my own Debian Stable dedicated server at my ISP (YEH! ;)). I would love to get some good suggestions on how to

Pc Pauses when I transfer files over network or from drive to drive.

Anyone do DV editing (Kino and Cinelerra)?

Ok, I'm playing with Kino -- works reasonably well, although segfaults when trying to control my Sony camera where dvgrab and gscanbus work fine at running the camera. Now I want to try Cinelerra. Can someone explain a bit about capturing. I found what seems like an old tutorial at

Okay, so I got a Debian box recently already set up with Woody and a few other programs. I've decided to wipe it out and install Sarge as my main OS, but would like to back up the OS as-is in case I mung anything up.
