My Windows 2000 system has a Quantum Fireball 5.1GB for the C: drive which has been keeping me busy recently trying to keep sufficent free space to run things (last night I managed to find ~3% space). The system has a second 40GB drive for data, swap files etc.

I've finally had enough & have ordered a Hitachi 320GB drive (and told my wife its an early birthday present from her...)

I'd like to clone my existing c: drive onto a large partition on this new drive, and retire the old quantum.

Which cloning software would you recomend?
I've already downloaded a recent copy of the Maxblast is this suitable?? (I've not seen an equivavent on Hitachi or Quantum websites).

I think I've got SP3 installed & hopfully my BIOS will support 48bit lba, otherwise I've got more fun & games ahead.

They should all be able to clone the drive without any issues.
