I have an Acer Aspire One - a wonderful little portable machine, with a keyboard and Windows XP (as opposed to a touchscreen and who-knows-what OS). The only problem with it is a distinct lack of memory and disk space.
Memory I can fix - there's only one DDR2 SODIMM slot, but the stick in the slot is only 1GB. Easy fix to upgrade to 2GB.
Disk space is harder - there's only one 2.5-inch SATA bay in the notebook, so I'll need to clone the drive onto the larger HDD. But there's only one 2.5-inch SATA bay in the notebook. How can I clone a hard drive when I can only install one drive at a time? For that matter, how do I clone a drive that has XP installed on it? (I haven't cloned a drive since the days when DOS was king...)
