BUT, you presumably want ALL of your documents folder on the new 
computer, so why do just the gnucash ones. And there are other things in 
your USER folder you probably want (where do you have pictures, things 
you have scanned, things you have downloaded, etc. So why not the entire 
user folder (I mean YOUR folder in there)

IF you have been making regular backups, wherever you put those should 
have enough room for this, and however you connect to that space should 
work for this.

This is less a "how do I move my gnucash data to a new computer" than 
"how do I move ALL my user data to a new computer"
