migrating windows 7 to backup HDD
Hello.
I am wondering if I can use backup and restore to migrate my install to the backup-HDD.
Can I just boot up from a system repair disk and restore the image from the backup drive to the backup drive?
(I was considering this because the backup drive is smaller than the installation's drive, and I wanted to have more space for backups... however, according to this thread (System Image Recovery
"You will not be able to do a system image recovery to a smaller HDD."
