Normally I use Acronis True Image to copy hard disks to new hard disks or make backup Images.
Sodds law is that Acronis is a little nervous when used with drives with Windows 7/Vista or XP attached to the computer for backup.
After a lot of failed attempts with software solutions on a failing family members drive. I remembered this drive copy station I bought from Amazon.
Stuck the slow reading failing drive in one hole and new drive in other. Pressed button twice and then called it a night.
By morning, this little station had copied the drive to the new one with no problems or errors.
Worth every penny and take my word for it, this station doesn't care if the drives twitchy or failing. It just writes it as it sees it.
You will notice that the copy you get is the same size as the drive you cloned assuming you have used a larger drive to copy to. so you will need to adjust partition to use any extra space your new drive may have..

Having found Windows Backup and other backup software absolutely useless when it came to needing them - apart from being too complicated and always at risk of missing something vital, I decided to try The Integral SATA HDD Copy Station.
Bought an extra, identical drive for my laptop and then, after having reached nirvana on the install and update front, whipped the drive out of the laptop and popped it into the Copy Station, together with the identical drive. The copy was surprisingly fast - I expected it to take all night, but, using the eSATA/eSATA cable provided, it was completed in an hour or so. Popped the cloned drive into the laptop (to prove cloning had worked properly) and found it worked exactly the same as the one I'd cloned. It's a bit-for-bit copy so it's identical to the original, data-wise.
I put the original (source) HDD in a very safe place, ready in case I need it. Everything's been brilliant and I will be repeating the process at periodic intervals (say 3 times a year), so that I have recent updates.
If you are confident about taking the HDD out of your machine (desktop or laptop) without zapping the circuitry, the cost of this Copy Station and a duplicate HDD is well worth the money compared to having to do a complete reinstall following a hard drive failure. I also recommend buying one of those HDD eSATA enclosures (you can get them for under a tenner), not only to protect the cloned HDD but, if necessary, be up and running in a few minutes - critical for a one-man business. Just ordered another, faster HDD, so that I can rotate backups.
Note - This is not a recommended method for backing up personal files and data (although it does that at the same time), which should be done routinely to an external device (USB stick or HDD) - it's a great way to avoid an awful lot of pain if the HDD fails - and they do, very occasionally, but always at the worst moments.
Summary - a great product from a respected company, at a very reasonable price - and their instructions make it so easy to use.

Amazon Verified Purchase
Good product.
Feels reasonably made, holds HDDs without any fear they will be too loose of so tight you'll damage them removing them.
Came with power brick with US and UK plug options, usb and eSATA cables.
Using it, drive bays clearly marked, and straighforward (good English) manuals. Copy on 2.5 250gb HDD to a 2.5 650gb HDD took around 1 hour, completely independent of any computer.
As a part of the copying, copied the partitions and their size-though straightforawrd to resolve through Vista's HDD management software.
Much easier and quicker than software backup programs I have used before. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to upgrade a root drive, or as a mirror back up system.
Can be used to attach to a computer as a port for ext HDD, though HDD not covered, though would be prone to dust.
