Transferring data to an "Internal SD Card"

    Hi all,

    I've got a Samsung Galaxy S.

    In settings -> SD Card and phone storage there are 3 storage options/facilities listed

    1. External SD Card (14.83GB total - 7.03GB free)
    2. Internal SD Card (5.78GB total - 5.62GB free)
    3. Internal phone storage (1.56GB free)

    I have about 5GB of music on the external SD card I'd like to move to the internal SD card as I want it with me most of the time and it doesn't change very often. (I like my top X albums and that's about it!!) Is there a way I can transfer data from the external to the internal SD card? The internal card doesn't seem to be used for much so is there any reason I shouldn't do this? Should I leave more than 600MB free on the internal SD card assuming I can do the transfer?

    I'd like to free up more space on the external card to put moves on (long flight coming up) and to store videos and pictures taken on my travels etc

    Appreciate your feedback.

    Ben

    Try using Astro File Manager from the Market. I don't think there is a way without any additional apps.
