Hello,

I am looking for a program with the ability to move my windows installation (C: drive) to new larger hard drives on the same computer. Not only have I never done this, but after reading 25 sites, I am a bit more lost than when I started.

The program needs to support RAID and do a copy/transfer/migrate without having to reinstall windows. Please keep in mind I am anything BUT an expert at this so I need something reasonably easy to understand.

I do have a DVD/CD burner and a couple extra drives installed if needed in the process somehow, but the other hard drives are not bootable.

I appreciate any help you folks might be able to give.

Without the RAID issue, Ghost or True Image should be able to clone the drive.

Also, most manufacturers have utility on their websites to clone a drive as long as one drive is theirs

i'm not 100% sure, but i seem to recall having simply copied the files to the other drive, and then run the vista installer repair on the new drive. i could be making things up though.
