Stephen,
When I upgraded the drive in my notebook I used a kit from Drive Solutions and this software came with it. EZ GIG II

I loaded the cd and ran it, followed the instructions and walked away and went to dinner. It will make copies of partitions as well. When complete you just install the drive as the first bootable and turn the system on. I followed this with Partition Magic to divide the drive into useable sections. First related stuff lives on E:
