Anyone know of a preferable freeware piece of software to clone contents of a HDD?
I have a 2.5 inch drive that has a dying motor. It will start sometimes and not others. It seems like all data is intact and I would really really like to get everything off including the registry etc... to put on a new hdd.
The reason is I spent a lot of time previously optimizing it to work in a CarPC and I don't want to screw around with that again to get the low boot times etc...
I believe norton ghost used to do it, but I thought there might be something free out there that you know of and is good.
Thanks
Edit:
Well I already found this.
