New hard drive

[CandleTracks]

I just bought a new 60G/7200rpm/ATA133 hard drive to replace my (one year) old 10G/7200rpm/ATA100 hard drive. There's nothing wrong with the old drive. Everything's fine. I just need a bigger (and faster) storage. How can I move the operating systems, programs, and all my settings/preferences to the new drive? I just wanna use 1 (new) drive instead having both of them as Master-Slave. What about the interface differences? Do I need to get a new controller card to maximize the new drive capability? I have no clue whatsoever about the BIOS, either. I don't even know what kind of BIOS that I have in my computer.
My computer specs: P3/800MHz/384MB RAM/32MB GeForce GTS/Millenium.
Thanks a lot in advance for your help.

Do you know that type of motherboard? That would tell you if it supports the ATA133. If it doesn't it will work and run at 100, but if you want 133 you will need to get a controller card.

As for moving your files over to the new disk usually when you buy a drive they give a program to do so. It's not real great but will get the job done.

Good Luck!!!

Go to your hard drives site and d/l there utility which should include a drive copy tool they all have one just jump the new drive as slave off the old one then you can set it as master after your done and set old one as slave and format it for more storage.
