I'm using ata drive. I'm thinking of upgrading to sata drive. Is it possible to clone the drive inorder to avoid reinstalling os, programs, files, etc.?

Here are a few options.

1) Make an image of your current HDD
2) Use the HDD mfg's cloning tool

FWIW I use Ghost 2003 on a floppy to clone IDE to IDE & IDE to SATA.
