I currently have a 40 gb drive with 2 partitions

I am planning to get a 60 gb one to replace it, than sell my old drive

how do I copy my existing partition to the newer drive? i have to do that before I format my old drive and sell it.


thanks in advance

Well, I think that it would be reasonable to burn CDRWs with the necessary stuff or jsut copy it to your new drive and then do a clean install. Of course, you could use the Take Two application from the Roxio EasyCDCreator, but I'm not sure how it will restore your two partitions with a bigger drive.

Most retail hard drives come with software that allow you to copy from your old hard drive to your new one. If not, you can probably download it from their site.
