My current system's primary hard drive (C is a Western Digital sata 2 500GB 7200rpm drive & the OS is windows 7 64 bit.
I have a Western Digital sata3 1TB 7200rpm drive coming in & I want to
know if I can clone my current system drive to this new one.
Western Digital offers a cloning tool but it implies that you have to plug it into the same port as the old one. In this case, the sata2 is plugged into a sata2 port whearas the new drive will be plugged into a sata3 port.
I also ask if the drive has to be "basic" or can it be "dynamic" ?
