Safe to abort drive-cloning?

[sparka]

Well, right now I'm cloning a 120gb hard drive to a 160gb hard drive. For my own, personal reasons I have to abort the process by turning off the computer and rebooting from the 120gb hard drive (the drive that is being cloned).

Is this safe?
What could happen?

Thanks!!

Well you'll have to start the cloning all over again, but it shouldn't affect the drive that's being cloned, although it would be better to abort the cloning prior to shutting of the computer.
