Hello /g/, I recently got myself some new hard drives for my PC. My current HD is nearly a decade old so its pretty fucking slow... Got myself a SSD and a Hybrid and wanted to know if there is an easy way to migrate my data from the old drives to the new drives..?

Not really helping with my question. Was aiming for data migration in at home rigs

dd for cloning; live-CD for moving OS, file manager for moving files

Would dd work for windows?

If on Windows just search for "disk cloning software"

I prefer cloning. Just make sure you have enough space when you transfer.

Going from Smaller to Larger. hoping to get my OS isolated onto a separate drive

Or he can just click 2 buttons on Acronis and not bother with all this shit.
Yes use dd if you want the exact same shit on your new drive. Look up dd clone for the command.
Delete system32.
It'll slow down the transfer and you can redownload it after you finished.

Get an external HD and use it as a backup too.
If I'm not transfering an OS, would simply copying and pasting all the folders on the HDD to another work, or is there better?
