1.	Solve : Transfering info on HD's?
Answer» Is there a way to transfer OS & all your dats from one HD to another? I know when you buy a NEW HD some give a program to do this...I recieved a 40Gb HD from a friend that I would like to swap my 8Gb to, if possible...any free programs that will help with this...or do i have to start from scratch?? Thanks!!Travel to the 40G HDD manuf. site and DLoad their free utilities...use these to create a bootable CD. Hook up the 40G as a slave drive and boot with the CD in. Then select the cloning utility and clone the 8G to the 40G. Power down and remove the 8G completely...HOOKING up the 40G as master. Power up and you should be good to go.... You can then later add the 8G as a slave drive and after being sure everything RUNS fine then format it and use it for extra storage...Ok...Thanks so much!!!You're Welcome...let us know.
