Alan, Can't say for sure with 2.2 but I know I used to use drive copy a lot and never had any trouble copying partitions as long as I sized them correctly.... You won't be able to do this unless you have a 4.3GB partition on your 10.2G HD to copy to otherwise the program will overwrite the existing partition and size it itself. I have been doing this all week with 3.0 so I can't speak authoritatively about 2.0(except from memory) but I don't expect that it is all that different....partition the 10.2 to match the partition size you want to copy...decide if you want it to be an active partition or a backup let the program copy selected partitions (doesn't seem to matter if one or the other is Drive 1 or Drive 2 (BTW....I have always used this program with each of the drives as a master on IDE 1 and IDE 2.... can't speak to the issue of master and slave copying ability though ,again,it should not really matter much.... As long as the 10.2 is empty or has the unallocated space to make a partition the size that you need you have nothing to lose....at worst....you won't get a good copy....you reformat the destination drive and the source drive (4.3G) remains intact......(BTW....unless you are planning on cloning this drive to be a bootable master why not just install it as a slave and copy the files over ????)
