I would recomend any HDD cloning soft like Acronis Migrate Easy.

and also you can check the rest of their products like Acronis True Image Home 2010 and Acronis DiskDirector Suite.

Thats a great question! I'm in the process of doing the same thing. still have not bought a new hard drive yet but will probably very soon! Anyways..are there any free programs that can do it? Id rather just re-install win7 the pay 40 bucks...

well its really a cheaper solution to just re install the OS.

but truly the app is worth every $

been using it since it came out and saved my the hassle of looking for my serials and stuff.

and you can use a trial test and see if your comfortable with this.

Is it possible to do it using windows application?jang_nara

yes, its simple.

just install both HDD's and run the app follow the instructions and there you go.

when done unplug the old HDD or format it.

its as simple as that.

that might work but for me I don't trust MS and besides not all win 7 editions have this feature I think.

any how its really up to you whther to use the app or anything else.

on the other hand if it was me I would go for the app above I tried it on almost 50 dell optiplexs' in my school lab and every time I get a winner.

Always great to save some money. I'm really surprised by how many people who don't realize all this stuff that MS puts in it's OSs.
