The SATA wire is also perfect for transferring data to empty hard drive or for making backups of your system. Now there is no more excuse for backing up or upgrading your system; just use SATA cable with any 2.5" SATA hard drive. The EZ Gig clone software transfers all your data, settings, OS and email from your internal drive to an external drive in just three easy steps. Once the clone process has been completed, simply replace your pc drive with the new one and your pc has been upgraded instantly.
There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the hard drive itself.

I checked for signs of disk errors and ran a few diagnostic tests and there are no problems there.
