Hi! My old 80GB is in dire need of replacement so what I did was buy a new

160GB Seagate drive. Right now, my old drive serves as my boot drive but I want to transfer all files to my new drive since the system performance of my PC is already down that it takes minutes just to boot it. What do you think is the easiest way to transfer all the files without compromising any possible errors?

My friend told me that using the "Cloning Maxx" software can help although Seagate has its own program that I can use. I am concerned about partition sizes from both old and new drive because if I do use the cloning software, would there be problems in different drive sizes (old = 80GB, new=160GB)? Do I
need to defrag before and after the transfer?
