    I have a MacBook Pro 13" with a drive running both Mac OS X and Windows. I am going to swap / upgrade the drive in this Mac to one with a larger capacity. What drive imaging tools would people recommend for this?

    If it helps, Mac OS X is installed on a 40GB HFS-formatted partition. Windows 7 is installed on an 80GB NTFS-formatted partition via BootCamp.

    Thank you.

    I have used Carbon Copy Cloner successfully in the past if that helps... Maybe someone else can chime in about successfully accomplishing this with your Boot Camp partition.

    EDIT :
    take a look at this :
