I think SuperDuper will do what you want. http://www.shirt-pocket.com/SuperDuper/SuperDuperDescription.html Naushad Zulfiqar wrote: My wife's macbook hard disk (120GB) is getting full.

If it's an Intel Mac, odds are the Acronis boot CD of Disk Director or True Image will work on it. Naushad Zulfiqar wrote: My wife's macbook hard disk (120GB) is getting full.

Re: [H] mac hard disk cloner
It is an intel mac. I do have a licensed copy of trueimage and will try that first. I doubt it will work though. But I hope I am wrong, so I don't have to fork out $25 for Super Duper. :) On Sun, Sep 7, 2008 at 9:46 AM, maccrawj <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > If it's an Intel Mac, odds are the Acronis boot CD of Disk Director or True > Image will work on it. > > > Naushad Zulfiqar wrote: > >> My wife's macbook hard disk (120GB) is getting full.

Re: [H] mac hard disk cloner
Dunno, but it's worth a try. For that matter there is a way to do it through boot camp I'm sure. Stupid Apple making a 99.99% PC, typical. Which reminds me, when is Jobs getting his head out of his ass & releasing OSX for the quality PC hardware, hehe Ben Ruset wrote: Will EFI boot something like that? maccrawj wrote: If it's an Intel Mac, odds are the Acronis boot CD of Disk Director or True Image will work on it.

Re: [H] mac hard disk cloner
Hey Ben, I'm glad to reply that SuperDuper! worked like a charm. In fact I am writing this e-mail from the new Toshiba 250GB Hard Disk. The Previous 120GB was a Seagate. Everything seems to be working fine and the cloning procedure was actually quite easy and painless. Thanks a bunch man!! You're a life saver!
