NTFS Disk Copy 1

[Laxman]

How do I copy an NT Workstation NTFS formatted drive onto another Hard Disk.

Format the other disk and do an scopy to preserve permisions. <br>

For a true image copy you could use Ghost or possible the shareware program WinImage. If you're copying a complete NT installation you will need to use a SID changer after that.

Here's a teqnique I,ve used several times successfully. Install your second hard drive, then mirror the drives. Shut down the server and then change your new hard drive to the same scsi id as the origional (so boot.ini will still work) then boot the computer and break the mirror!

is one source. You could also probably query on SID in any of the larger software sites. <p> Jeff<br><a href=mailto: masterracker@hotmail.com> masterracker@hotmail.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
