Cloning by Win2K Backup/Restore?
I need to replace my Win2K-loaded HDD by a larger capacity HDD. If I
backup the entire C: drive using the Win2K Backup utility which will produce (I believe) a single large file in the same partition and then attempt to "Restore" it into a added large drive (formatted and partitioned), will it work like a cloning software? Will I miss something? |
