Transfer Windows 7 OS from one hard drive to another

I think of buying a new hard drive soon, but stumbled upon this question.

I currently have a genuine Windows 7 operating system installed on my computer. I had initially installed Windows Vista , but I had bought and installed a Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade.
If I haven't bought a new hard drive (in the sense of higher data transfer rate), would I be able to pass all of my files and my disk Windows 7 operating system hard current to the new hard drive?
Or I have to buy another copy of the 'easy transfer' Windows 7 Edition Home Premium and files?

If you move a drive hard mechanical to another mechanical disk, so long that the reader who is replaced, equal or superior in size, it must be able to back up your installation and restore it on the new drive.

  • Transfer from one hard drive to another

    I transferred all my music from one hard disk to another. I want to be able to play these files from the new location without redownloading everything iTunes game or duplication of entries for the itunes files.  At the moment Itunes shows my entire library with the icon for download next to him. If I drag and drop files from the new location to Itunes, it creates duplicate entries.  I could re - download the entire library through itunes game, but it would be a big waste of time. I wish I could tell itunes to search my library in the new location of the directory. Is this possible?

    For general information, see make a library of portable split . If the library was already divided and you have moved the content from one disk to the other you can fix things by reassigning drive letters. Otherwise if you copy the library files and place inside press it then it should be as if you moved a portable library as a unit and everything should be back in place.

    Despite the title, this video explains how to MOVE pictures, not how to copy.

    There is no way to make copies of the photos using Lightroom, you can move the photos using Lightroom.

    Lightroom will result in no records per day, except when you import photos. If I could make a suggestion, leave your files in the same "mess" they are in now and use the keywords and other metadata to allow you to organize and search.

  • How to transfer data from one hard drive to another?

    I don't know how and has been upgraded to a new hard drive...

    Hello

    Well, it may be quite simple, if you install the new OS in the new drive.

    Then you connect the older HARD drive, and you should be able to explore the contents of the HARD drive in windows and copy the data from the old disk to the new. Be careful with what is selected in the BIOS startup disk.

    But depends on the unit you have, because you might end up having several types of questions.

    You can also use any kind of external card, depends on the type of connection of HARD drive you have and for example, if its SATA, you can simply use a SATA to USB adapter.

    Let me know if this helped.

    Thank you

  • How to copy data from one hard drive to another after the upgrade?

    I have a HP e9220y, and I recently bought a new hard drive for it. There is nothing wrong with the former, but this one has a 64 MB cache and 7200 RPM so I hope it will be a little faster. I installed it and it works fine, but I want to copy all data from the old disk to the new so I can start everything off the faster hard drive and I seem to have a bit of doing wrong. I can't just copy and paste because of the Windows system files that are used. And last night when I set up Windows backup, and went to bed, when I thought it that Windows has recovered from a stop unexpected, rebooted, and only 2 GB of data saved obtained.

    What is the best way to move all the data from the old drive to the new drive, make it the default C: drive and move partitions system and factory_image as well? Thank you!

    (1) If your old drive and the new drive is Seagate or Western Digital, then free House with their cloning software.

    (2) before starting the clone process, I found best to perform a disk cleanup and defragmentation.

    Cloning software to copy the two partitions. Example:

    Old drive 250 GB formatted to 232 C: created 220 and 12 GB D:

    New 1000GO drive formatted to 931 GB created 919 GB C: and D: to 12 GB

    The "Seagate disc Wizard" cloning software will let create you a clone automatic or manual partition resizing.

    The two modes to offer an overview of the actions before commit you. The manual on this page of Seagate (PDF) is 68 pages.

    After the cloning process he complete, all you have to do is swap on the disks. Besure to connect your new disc on the original motherboard SATA port.

    Old disk 60Go new 320 GB drive.  I want to do the new replacement for the old disk drive.

    Use disk cloning software.

    The safest way is to use an external hard drive enclosure to maintain the new disc during the cloning operation.  These come with interfaces USB or e-SATA to IDE or SATA interfaces for the drive and the computer.  Be sure to get the correct type.  If you have an available internal drive Bay, you can put the new drive it for the cloning operation, but do NOT restart with two connected drives.  After everything was settled down, you can mount the old disk of 60 GB inside, format and use it for storage of backup.

    Cloning (copy to disc) software may have been bundled with your new drive or may be accessed free of charge from the manufacturer of the new command.

    Otherwise, here are a few apps cloning that I have used myself or have been recommended by members of the community:

    Acronis True Image Home
    Casper
    Paragon Drive Copy

  • I want to move a program from one hard disk to another is possible?

    I want to move a program from one hard disk to another is possible? I have the original disc to the software, but it is damaged. The hard disk that contains the program barely works, so I need to transfer all the programs and data to another drive. I used the transfer Assistant, but that will not transfer this program?

    Unless you make an exact copy of the installation CD, I'm not sure there is much else you can do.

    You can always try using a cloth and wipe the disc from the Center outward. That might do the trick. Or you can use a program like IMGBurn and create a new CD and hope for the best. Other than that, I'm ideas.

  • Lightroom - how to restore backed up files (not the Lightroom Catalog) from one external drive to another?

    How to restore backed up files (not the lightroom catalog) from one external drive to another.

    I've recently saved my photo files to one external drive to another. The backup (carbon copy clone) pointed out some files corrupt on the original drive.

    I deleted these files and find good copies of Time Machine backups.

    I want to get rid of the original external drive; use the recent backup as my main outside and then save it to a new disc.

    I'm not sure how everything is point lightroom for backups so he knows look on the new drive instead of the old drive and all points of exclamation and question marks go away.

    There are close to 60 000 images in several files with a 'parent folder."

    My best guess is Lightroom Help - create and manage folders - locate missing files

    Can I point to the folder of one of their parents, and all of the subfolders will return?

    This is the process for recovering files in lightroom and there will be a problem with so many photos?

  • Cannot copy a Machine of Vitrual XP from one external drive to another

    Interesting problem I can repeat that with one of my virtual machines in Fusion 2.0.2

    1. I have an XP VM I'm copying from one external drive to another.

    2. it starts copying, then, at the end of 40 MB, it stops and a message indicates the virtual machine is in service, one can not be copied.

    I did the same with my Win7 and Vista VM with NO problem from the same player to start on the same end drive, just this VM XP gives me problems.

    I can open the XP VM without any problems and I can close with no probem.
