Q: Clone hard drive

Hi

 

no doubt a simple question but...

 

I'm thinking of changing my 500gb drive for a 1TB

What is the best way to do this??

 

I have an external 1tb that I use at the moment  for time capsule but is there and image/clone program similar to ghost to cut an emergency restore image??

 

thanks

 

Ian

    keybis, greetings:  The symptoms you describe suggest a cable/connection failure internally in your MBP.  This is a simple fix. 

     

    You may take your MBP to an Apple store for a definitive diagnosis and they should be able to replace the cable for you without an exorbitant fee.

     

    Ciao.

    peppermint. greetings:  You might post your query in the iMac forum.  Your situation appears to be different than the issue in this discussion.

     

    If I understand your situation correctly, a Time Machine backup would suffice allowing you to reinstall user data.  If you choose to clone the HDD, Target Disk mode would be another method for reinstalling user data.
