Hello everybody.

I'd like to know if duplicating a hard drive to another one is just a matter of plugging the 2 hard drives and copying files from the source to the destination.(setting the master an slave
small plastic bits of course).
I'm experiencing some problems with a machine recently bought on ebay.
It freezes when the desktop shows.
The mice moves but no action is possible.
The computer works ok when I unplug the hard drive.
My idea is to remove the hard drive, format it, copy the content of a fully working Iyonix HD on it,
and plug it back.

So, is it as straightforward as written first lines above ?

Thank you for your help.

Xavier.
