Subject: [dba-Tech] Hard drive cloning

Hi all

I'm thinking of replacing the very slow (5400rpm) 1tb hard drive in my laptop with a much faster SSD, sacrificing some storage space (that I don't really use anyway). I can do the mechanical part no problem, but how do I move the Windows 8.1 installation from one drive to another without breaking anything?

Last time I did this was about 7 years ago, and I used Norton Ghost to make a backup to another hard drive, which I then swapped out. What software should I use now?


Jon
