   Good way to do a 1:1 drivecopy
  I want to copy my current 80gig hd to a 250gig hard drive, then make the 250 my main drive and discard the 80gig.  Does anybody know of any good software to make the copy?  It doesn't seem like windows would copy correctly if it is booted.  How would one do this in the most effective way, so as to not compromise windows?   
  I used Acronis TrueImage (there's a free trial) to do the same kind of thing, and was pleasantly surprised when it worked as expected, linux partitions and all.   ;  What kind of drive is it? I did smoething similar with a couple of Seagates, Seagate provides free software for just that purpose.
