How to Clone a Hard Drive in Windows 7 (32-bit or 64-bit)

Can I clone Windows 7 (64-bit or 32-bit) along with my data to another hard drive?

Are you planning to upgrade your old or system drive to a newer and larger one? How do you clone a hard drive? And how can you safely upgrade your system drive without running into boot failures?

Many people want to clone a disk that contains an operating system, such as Windows 7, so they can replace the original: since the operating system is on the disk, you can't simply copy the Windows files to the new disk, or Windows might not boot from it.

So, is there a safe and easy way to transfer data from Windows 7 to a larger hard drive? Or is there a Windows 7 cloning software available? Actually, cloning Windows hard drive to new computer is much safer and faster than reinstalling Windows and all applications.

This is especially useful when you want to upgrade an older, smaller hard drive with a newer, larger one, without having to reinstall your operating system and applications.

This article will introduce you to a Windows 7 cloning software that can safely and efficiently clone your hard drive, allowing you to move your Windows 7 installation from one hard drive to another without having to reinstall the operating system or applications.
