migrating Windows 7 to new hard drive

Question

I have laptop with Windows 7. The whole drive is encrypted with Bitlocker. I want to switch magnetic hard drive to SSD. How can I mirror the entire system onto the SSD with the LEAST amount of user attention?? ideally, I'd like to be able to just pop the SSD into the laptop and get on with the life

Answer 1

There are several possibilities. In certain job, we used to create images with Image Magic (not Image Magick) if I remember well. We had remote images(like systems cloned) in certain local server, one image per type of computer/hardware. It was a matter of 30 mins in download + setup, no user interaction.

These days, probably one of the best options is Clonezilla.
