new hard drive

Thread needs solution

If I have a hard drive crash and need to install a new drive will my back up from image 2014 install on this new drive? I read that if any computer parts were changed from the back up that was made from original drive, that I would need 2014 premium to install on new drive. Or is that just concerning motherboards, IDE and SCSI switches. Using Win8 on HP laptop that's only 5 weeks old and two nights ago I have a pop up window from windows that stated something to the effect that my hard drive was failing. I go to HP diagnostics and to run test on drive and it states that "hrd drive failure immenint" I just purchased tru image 2014 but not premium. Am I going to be able to install my back up to a new drive?

A change of HD does not normally require any new drivers nor Universal Restore.
