Thedoc Posted September 8, 2007 Hi all I am about to upgrade my Hard drive and would like a free programme that will clone onto my new hard drive without the pain of a reinstall? Can anyone point me in the right direction please? Thanks Doc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
red930 Posted September 8, 2007 Take a look at acronis the free trail i mean Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soundx98 Posted September 8, 2007 Or you can try the GParted Live CD http://gparted.sourceforge.net/ Yes, It's LINUX but so easy to use even I figured it out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boywander Posted September 8, 2007 For cloning partitions? Be interested, as I have an earlier version of that. Most manufacturers have their own free tools on the website for just that purpose. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soundx98 Posted September 9, 2007 Garted allows you to clone partitions as well as resize them and move them. It's a really valuable tool. Acronis is excellent as well, but it's always nice to have a "free" program working like a champ. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thedoc Posted September 9, 2007 Thanks all so far for your help I am looking at the Linux one at the moment. I will complete the move to a larger HDD in the next few weeks (money and excuses of money disappearing from joint account to other half) Doc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
