Most new retal boxed hard drives have such a program in the box-and if they
don't you can find it on the manufacturer's web site.

Just to show you how cheap drives are getting, yesterday I bought a 1.5
terabyte Seagate Barracuda 7200 RPM SATA/300 drive with a 32 meg cache retail
boxed at Fry's for $125.00.
Buy two more and you could have a three terabyte RAID 5 array for 375.00!
I also saw a Western Digital 1 terabyte drive at Micro Center for $80.00.

Hi
    Another way to clone a hard drive is to use "Acronis Migrate Easy" It 
works a little bit like the old Ghost  that Norton had a few years ago. I have
used it few time on computers which I wanted to up size the drives and it
worked great. Just run the program and swap the drives. Works with XP,  The
Program sells for about $50.00 US.
