possible to Migrate without making clean partition?
Is it possible to migrate programs only to another (larger) HD on my system?
The problem for me is that the larger disk has been in use for a while and would be difficult to clean off for a new partitioning. I tried the demo version of Migrate. Does True Image have this capability?
Do one of the Acronics products support directory level granularity for migration (say \Program Files)?

Hello Ilya
Thanks for your reply.. I understand the registry issues, which is why I am seeking a migrate utility.
I am now trying to use True Image Home to accomplish this: I made a fullbackup of the smaller drive. I now want to unpack this without doing a new partition...
Does the file restore feature (from a full backup) allow program files to be restored to a new disk (with registry fixups) or is this just for data type files?

Bob,
The only way of you achieving 'inserting' the smaller drive contents on to the larger is to prepare the larger drive by adding an extra partition to it, perhaps by using Disk Director, then restore the smaller drive image to the larger one in the new partition created, then if you want, use DD to merge your two partitions to one.
I assume you only want to have one drive installed in your system as otherwise booting will become a problem as your system will 'race' to decide which drive should be booted.
Be aware that any program that uses disk ID's to perform any tasks (like True Image) will need those tasks recreated once active on the new drive.
