I use this tool religiously:

I work in IT and I've had to use this countless times. I linked the free version, but there is a paid version too if you're interested.

Split drive into two partitions, one for your OS and one for your "D:" drive, and use either clonezilla or Macrium Reflect (I use the latter) to clone your OS partitions to the new drive.

I should check out Clonezilla again, something about it made me ragequit it for Macrium, but that was quite a while ago now. Wish I could remember.

So do I >>53748628, and I find Reflect more feature rich, YMMV though. Check it out if you haven't seen it I guess.

>Is copy and paste fine?
the only time you need to fuck with cloning software is if the drive is your boot drive (C:, 99.999% of the time)

I dont need to install the OS on that disk. Gonna be putting in a 240GB SSD that I'm gonna partition for OS and steam use.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I'll check out the programs listed.
