If you can get the mechanically failing HD to run up where a ghosting software can see both drives then I see no problem in doing it - I do it all the time with Acronic True Image as long as the machine can communicate. In some cases if the image on the new drive has problems then I reload the new drive and carry their personal files across. ->-----Original Message----- ->From: computertalkshop-bouncefreelists.org ->[mailto:computertalkshop-bouncefreelists.org]On Behalf Of Eric C.
