I have used the maxtor software fromMaxtor to copy data from one drive to another.
It seems to work OK even if you don't have a maxtor drive (though they may have made it smarter with V3)

They only req is the new drive is bigger than the old drive.

The easy way is once you have made the floppy is
open your 'puter, and if you have one HD and a CD..
disconnect the CD..
add the HD in it's place (assuming on IDE Ch 2 as master)...
Connect the new HD..
Stick floppy in...
Reboot..
follow prompts...

This works if your Bios is set to AUTO for all drives
