Or you could use Plusmaker like I did on an external 500Mb disk, it took 10
minutes and no data was lost (and yes I did back up first!). When someone
gets a disk repair app out for HFS+ then I'll do the rest of my disks. Got
back about 18Mb from the 500Mb drive.

There's another little app out there (I think it's freeware) called
MacSlack which will work out for you how much space you can save by going
to HFS+, worth running it to see if there's much point to changing file
systems.
