How to Clone a HardDrive to a new HardDrive?
Hello, my current 250GB hard drive is noisy, and I am running out of room. I bought a new 1TB Hard drive. I wish to exactly copy the contents of my 250GB hard drive to my 1TB hard drive.
- I don’t want to make them work together
- I don’t want to use the second one for storage space
- I don’t want to use the second one as backup
- I simply want to remove the 250GB, put in the 1TB, and for everything to remain EXACTLY the same (but the new drive will make everything faster and will have more storage capacity, obviously).
I believe this is done through a process called "cloning". Here is what I think needs to be done, please correct me if I am wrong at any point:
———————–
1. Run Norton Ghost (or similar cloning program). Clone the 250GB HardDrive. The clone "file" will remain on the 250GB hard drive.
2. Turn PC Off. Phyiscally install the new 1TB hard drive into the computer, setting it has "SLAVE".
3. Boot up the computer, windows loads as normal. (?)
4. Run Norton Ghost, use 250GB HardDrive as SOURCE, 1TB HardDrive as DESTINATION.
5. Run…. Cloning complete (does this mean that all the stuff on my 250 is now on the 1TB?)
6. Turn off computer, remove old Hard Drive, Set 1TB HardDrive as MASTER.
7. Turn on computer, load windows, everything is exactly as it was on the old 250GB, but not I have 1TB instead and its not noisy anymore.
————-
This seems pretty easy…I must be missing several parts. Some tutorials suggest you need a WINDOWSXP (or 7) boot CD, some say you need to burn something onto a DVD…
Do I need to format the 1TB HardDrive prior to doing everything? If so, how do I do this?
Do I install the new 1TB HardDrive into the computer with my 250GB remaining in it? Or do I remove the 250, install the 1TB, format the 1TB, reinstall the 250, clone source->destination, remove the 250?
Can someone please make small logical steps to take in order to simply replace the 250 with a 1TB, and for everything to remain exactly the same.
Check out Clonezilla. I’ve used it heaps for work and it’s free.
