2. Use FDISK to create a primary partition on the new drive. You can have
only one active primary partition on the computer, so this will be an
inactive primary partition.
3. Exit from FDISK, and restart your computer. FDISK assigns a drive letter to
the inactive partition. Use the FORMAT command to format the new drive.
4. Use XCOPY to copy directories and files from drive C to your inactive
primary partition on the new drive. For information about XCOPY options,
see the documentation that comes with your operating system. Before you
run XCOPY, be sure to close all other applications (including Windows). If
an active application locks data files, the files might not be copied.
5. Open FDISK, and display the current drive partitioning information. Select
the current startup partition drive number, and make this partition inactive.
You no longer can restart from this partition.
6. Press Esc to exit from FDISK. When prompted, restart your computer.
7. Turn off your computer, and disconnect the power cord from the electrical
outlet. Open the computer, and set the SCSI ID for the new drive to the ID
that your SCSI adapter requires for the primary drive. To avoid duplicate
SCSI IDs for the two drives, remove the original startup drive, or change
the SCSI ID of the original drive.
8. Close the computer, reconnect the power cord, and restart the computer.
The computer restarts from the primary partition on the new drive.
If files are not copied correctly from your old drive, your computer might not
start correctly. If this happens you must reinstall your operating system on the
new drive. For more information, see the documentation that comes with your
operating system.
