I have two internal SATA drives. My C: Drive is 70 Gb and my G: Drive is 250
Gb. I want to switch them around and make the Larger drive my C: Drive with
the operating system. I have USB Drives and Norton Save & Restore (Ghost) to
help with the task. The only thing I want to know is how to rename the
drives and boot from the larger drive which will become the C: Drive. I know
how to do it with IDE Drives but not sure about SATA Drives.

internal drives should be able to swap around but external drives were not
designed to run an operating system(so i'm told) so here may cause a
problem. also when drives are added for memory they don't have an operating
system on them, if this is made into your primary drive and bios is set-up
to run this primary drive first again there lies a problem. is my thinking
on the right track? feel free to correct me if not or steer me in the proper
lane. thanx
