    Greetings everyone!

    I was wondering if any of you had experience using the program Acronis Migrate Easy 7.0? Currently I have my new Hitachi HD in an external enclosure to be connected via USB to my T61. I was wondering if I just ran the program. Will it perfectly clone everything on my old HD to the new HD in the external enclosure. Has anyone had issues such as the partitions not being copied and such. I appreciate any input and help as this is my 1st time doing this. Thank you for you time!

    I did have a problem with Migrate Easy and dual boot Vista + XP. In fact, I'm not sure how well it handles Vista. In this case get the trial of True Image 11 which is Vista compatible.
