I have recently bought a new PC and a 120G SSD to upgrade to.Windows 8 is pre-installed on the PC but it doesn't come with an installation disc so Im not sure a clean install is an option for me. I have looked into the procedure for cloning using EaseUS and need further clarification on some of the steps. When selecting the source disc do i select the whole disc including all the partitions? My HDD (2TB) is partitioned as follows ( taken from disc management):

1) 800MB recovery partition
2) 260MB EFI system partition
3) 150GB Windows (C:)  NTFS primary partition
4) 1691.19GB Data (D:)  NTFS primary partition
5) 20.67GB recovery partition

With EaseUS 7.0 i have the option to select the whole disc or an individual partition for the source. How does it deal with the large Data partition?

thanks
Demi
