clone summary question

Thread needs solution

I am now ready to clone my xp pro c drive to a larger hard drive. I have a question about the clone summary page. At the top it lists my drives (there are two) 1 and 2. At the bottom there are two sections. The first is, it says; "before" and the second "after". The size of both boxes are the same and only the drive designation changes (first is "d" and second is "c") I am assuming that both of the bottom sections are referring to the cloned drive. My problem is that the top says drives 1 and 2 and I want to make absolutely sure that the bottom is showing what happens to drive d after cloning. (I am a bit paranoid and would prefer not to lose the information on the source drive)

Thank you........

Make sure you clone from the recovery CD. Do not reboot the computer with both disks after the clone. Ideally put the new disk on the old disk connector before the clone. Choose the automatic clone mode. The software will show you what it will do. Check the disk characteristics, not the drive letters to evaluate which disk is which. If you don't like what you side, swith to manual mode.
