How to copy hard drive to other hard drive

[Philippoussis]

is there a way that you can out all the information from one hard drive to another one without installing everything again,

i heard something like northon ghost or something but how does it work and what does it do?..


or is the only way to install everything again..

If you have an external hard disk I would use that

hi, thnx for all the help

but the hitachi-travelstar-7k100 has as interface ata-6
and my laptop has sata,

can i buy this hard drive or won't it fit..

if this drive does not fit(i know they are both 2.5 inch so it should fit no?)

if it does not fit can somebody maybe give me another site with a 7200 rpm drive that is really good comparable to this one

thank you

No, you need a SATA 2.5" drive like this one
