Use Acronis, just transfer/ghost it from one HDD to another and you're done.

True Image.

Acronis True Image works great. I use it at work all the time.

As said, Acronis True Image works the best. :toast:

Id do a fresh install. But im that way. I don't trust ghosting on the systems drive. Mostly because by the time I do one there a numerous driver updates so it just makes me feel warm inside

If you decide to use back up method then suggest that you use window default backup system.
