Just to back to the original point, a few months ago, I bought a new hard drive, and wanted to use the original as a slave. Did'nt want to spend any money on software for transferring the data on my old drive to the new faster one. After much searching, found 'HDCopy' A small, no frills freeware utility that did exactly what I wanted. Transferred Windows and absolutly everything else faultlessly to the new drive. Then just swapped master and slave priorities, formatted my old drive, and job done. Try this link..
