Thomas is on the money. If you have a way of connecting your Amiga HDD, for example CF HDD, to your PC you can simply copy the existing files from the HDF to the Amiga's HDD without an issue.
 
I do this all the time with Opus on Classic WB.

Pretty much that I would have thought. After all UAE should treat the SCSI HDD just like a CF drive. You would just obviously have to format and partition as normal though I dunno if max transfer would have to be set.

Just make sure winuae assigns the drive as SCSI. Aslo hunt down Amiga911 adf. Has a great HDtoolbox setup. :)

Yeah I don't ever recall that method been mentioned in any manual. Good way of shreding data though :P
