.......If when you change the hard drivr on the computer, you have the old hard drive cloned to the new hard drive. you will accomplish two things. first you wont have to reload windows, and all the software. second, you will have a spare drive set up already for an emergency. (it takes about 5 minutes to plug in a laptop hard drive vs......... a bunch of time reloading.
Norton ghost will do the hard drive clone but on a laptop you will need to use adapters, and a desktop type computer. Most places will do the cloning for a reasonable fee.
