I am not convinced that I downloaded the correct zip file. Not all files were copied from the source to the destination drive.' This message pops up after only about two seconds into the file copy process. It had everything I needed, but no matter which option I tried- 'drive setup' or partition copy from the Utilities section, I get :' An error occurred during the file copy process. They had me download a 29meg zip file that I could burn an ISO image from, to a CD. I spent perhaps 3 hours and about 6 phone calls to Western Digital's Tech Supp, with no luck.

I finally got some time off work to try and copy the 74gig Raptor to the 150gig. Unfortunately, GHOST is not one of them.Ĭould someone tell me how I can copy one SATA drive to a new one? Thanks. Inserting the CD into the CD drive gives me several options, among them is a 'run programs from the CD '. Exploring the contents of the CD shows a Ghost folder with a bunch of files in it, one of which is a setup.exe. I still have a CD called Norton System Works Professional Edition 2001. Is there a program out there, that can be burned to a CD, so that I could select the CD drive as first boot and then go from there? I still have all of my old floppies, but no longer have a floppy drive. I want to copy the 74gig Raptor to a 150 gig Raptor that I just purchased. I have Windows XP installed on the 74gig Raptor drive(SATA), and Vista on a 120gig EIDE WD Caviar. It has an Asus A8Ne motherboard that can accept 4 SATA drives and 4 EIDE drives.

I now have a computer with no floppy drive. Copying the old drive to the new one using either company's supplied software never worked-the number of bytes on the source and destination drives never matched, even though I'd get a 'successfully copied' message from the software. Over the years, whenever I purchased a retail boxed harddrive, be it WD or Maxtor, it would come with either a floppy or a CD with 'tools' on them. It has been my experience that Norton Ghost was the only program that faithfully copied one drive to another.
