Within the next few days I will be adding two new hard drives to my computer. I currently have two 60GB drives working in a RAID 0 array, which also hosts Windows XP. The new drives are 250GB a piece and will also be working in a RAID 0 array....with one difference. Currently I only have a single primary partition on my array. On the new array I want to build two partitions, one for XP and the other for Vista Ultimate.
I wanted to migrate everything from my current array to the new one without having to reinstall XP.
I currently use Acronis True Image Home 11 to back everything up. I do not know if I can do a migration with this software. Besides, I wanted to preserve the boot sector so the new array is still bootable.
Does anyone know if TIH does this or do I need another piece of software to do this migration? I saw Migrate Easy 7, but I did not want to purchase it because I will only be using it a single time. Any free software would also be great!
Thanks!
