The maker of your new hard drive very likely offers a free utility to allow
you to do just that. Take a look at their website.

Is there a demo version for Norton Ghost 2003? I think you have to
purchase it first, before you can use it.

InstantRecovery from NovaStor is another option. It functions off of a
bootable CD. You can span an image of your hard disk across multiple CD-R
or CD-RW's if you have a CD burner, separate from the CD drive you use to
load the program.

You can access it he http://www.no-panic.com/recovery/irecover.html

If not, use Norton Ghost 2003. It does a good job.
