Cloning a partitioned HDD?

by mjs_jr . Updated 16 years, 9 months ago

I am about to replace the hard drive in my laptop – in the process of buying a drive and an external enclosure. But my HDD has a C: partition and a D: partition. The OS (WinXP) is on the C: partition, and the D: only has some data I can backup to my external backup drive.

Can I still clone the drive to swap it out? What happens with the partition?

(I’m on a Dell Inspiron E1505. Already upgraded the memory, but desperately need more drive space.)
