Create two partitions first, (1) 20GB, and the other 100GB.

Ghost the first drive (assuming it has only one partition) onto the 20GB partition.

Pretty much. Whever I need to ghost something, that's what I do. Partition to the desired size, select your source, select your destination and a few minutes later everythings good in the hood. Gotta love ghosting.
