I know this will sound intelligent but for some reason I can't get it how to use it. This is my delima. I recently build a new pc and I want to compact all the info on the old pc. This is the question I have 3 hard drives with 2 OS and I want to move them to 1 Hard drive and upgrade it to Windows 7.
Hard Drive 1: 300gb Vista. 1tb free space
Hard Drive 2: 320gb Xp, 600gb free
Hard Drive 3: 930gb free.

What would the best method used to do this?

To move a hard drive to another computer and not have to reinstall all your Apps, you have to make an Image of the drive on the old computer then restore it to the new computer using an extra cost add-on of True Image Workstation called Universal Restore.

But since you want to go to Windows 7 it is really better to do a fresh installation. It may take longer (to reinstall your Apps) but in the long run you will have a better running system.

An upgrade can only be done from Vista, not from XP.

I think I didn't explain myself good. The new pc has a its VeliRaptor hard drive and the OS will be a clean install. The old Computer I will still keep around and want to use the the extra hard drives for storage. Hard drive 1 has a total of 1.3 tb with a 300gb Vista partition. and Hard drive 2 has a total of 930gb space with a 320 xp partition. My goal is to put both of them on 1 hard drive and use the other 2 as storage on the new computer.

So my goal is to move Vista partion and XP partition to Hard drive 3 and use as dual boot if necessary.
