Howdy all, I think I have gotten a deal for a SATA drive (FINALLY for me!) off of Craigslist and I want to know something here...:
I have Windows XP on my 3 year old IDE hard drive which I have been using on the entire time I had it. I want to "upgrade" to a better, bigger, and faster hard drive, which is the aforemented SATA one. I never done this before, I've heard its possible, and I need some input by people who have done it before.
The main thing I'm concerned about is if I "clone" my Windows XP on my old HDD to the new HDD, will any of that Microsoft licensing conflict any of it because its on a different hard drive? I don't want to end up with a voided key or something and have to buy another OEM of XP. I got Norton Ghost, because I heard that is what you need for that kind of thing...
Also, after the process of cloning, does that mean I can use my Windows XP on both my old and new hard drive? Or does Norton Ghost simply "transfer" everything to the new one and leave the partition completely empty on my old HDD?
Whach'u got to say about this TechIMO'ers? :|
