Here's my issue. I am a complete novice to this and have been searching the forums, but the more I do the more confused I get. I have TIH with the plus pack (just bought it to do this). I have a 30 gig OCZ ssd boot drive that is full. I bought a 64 gig Crucial ssd as a replacement. If I clone will TIH set the new partion sizes correctly? Or should I let Windows 7 format the disk and do a partition restore? Or even a fresh install of Windows 7, and restore from that ( I don't know about that one). My system is...30 gig ssd boot, 150 gig velociraptors (raid 0), 320 gig WD(backup) Here's my current boot drive. Description Disk drive

If you don't change your computer motherboard, you don't need to use the Plus Pack for this.
On your disk you have a system reserved partition and a c:\ partition. Both partitions are aligned: you are in good shape :-)

- launch ATI and create a bootable recovery CD or USB flash drive.
- backup your OLD SSD to your backup drive: when you backup, select the box at the disk level. Watch out that drive letters that you see on the CD are not the same as in windows. Most probably you will see that you hidden system reserver partition will have the letter D: Doesn't matter. Make sure that ALL partitions are selected
- complete the full backup (no need to change any default option, no need to do a sector-by-sector backup)
- validate the backup (righ click on the backup file, choose validate)
- shutdown the computer, put the new SSD at the same spot as the old SSD (remove the OLD completely from the computer). Be careful with static electricity when touching components. Always touch the frame of the computer or use a wristband if you have one.
- boot the computer on the CD again and choose restore.
- first restore the system reserved partition. The new location is your new SSD. Make the partition primary and active. Do NOT resize it. Leave the 1MB offset before the partition. This will go fast.
- then restore the C:\partition. Change the size to occupy the rest of the disk.
- then restore the MBR+Track0 and disk signature.
- reboot. It should work.

No need to preformat the disk, install windows, etc.
