Have XP Pro.  Recently installed new 320GB WD IDE hard drive (replacement
for a replacement!)  as slave D:.  Imaged  boot drive C: (200GB WD) to the
new drive from boot drive D: using Norton Ghost. Each drive has a single
NTFS basic partition.  Changed bios to boot from D:  Since C: has only 10GB
of space left, want to make the 320GB drive new C: and the 200GB drive new
D: for use as Ghost back-up.  What do I need to do in order to accomplish
this?  Do I need to reverse the master/slave connectors on the IDE cable?
Could I rename current C: to, say G:, rename current D: to C: and then
rename G: to D:?  All suggestions/advice greatly appreciated.
