Programs for cloning a hard drive?

[Casper312]

So i got my hands on a new hard drive and im wondering what good programs are there to move things over to the new hard drive.

So far i found 2 which are Nortons Ghost and HDClone. I recall vista having a built in feature but from the looks of it, Windows 7 does not

So what programs should i use? Looking to move everything over to the new drive.

I used Acronis True Image Home 2010 to clone my drive just this week. It was very simple. There is a trial version if you want to try before you buy.

Macrium Reflect...free version

I use ghost at work and it works great.

The free drive setup software from Seagate and WD use a version off Acronis and have never failed me. Download the hard drive manufacturer's latest drive setup software and clone away!

I like Macrium Reflect, Paragon Drive Backup, and DriveImage XML...but as you can see there are plenty of options out there.

I use Ghost at work and DriveImage XML at home/for friends. No problems with either.

do these programs work for cloning everything including bitlocker partitions?

I want to replace a 500GB 7200RPM drive for a 128GB SSD drive
