I have a late model 2008 MBP and the optical drive bay has my old platter drive in it. I had a bit of trouble getting the Bootcamp partition set up, though that was partially due to my configuration. It seems that Winclone can only copy the image onto a 'Macintosh' partition and then from that aprtition onto another Bootcamp Then run Winclone 2.3.3 to restore the Bootcamp partition from the Image in Macintosh HD and into the new Bootcamp. Run Winclone 2.3.3 to capture and 'Image' of the old Bootcamp partition (from the USB - SATA connection) - save the image onto the new Macintosh HD partition. In Snow Leopard, used Bootcamp Assistant to split the new hard drive from one partition into a smaller Macintosh HD and a bootcamp partition,(bigger than the old bootcamp partition). Once restore was complete, rebooted into Snow Leopard from the hard drive. Used Utilities to 'Restore from Time Machine'. Then partitioned the drive as one partition 'Macintosh HD'. Used Utilities to Erase the new hard drive. Removed the old drive and put it into an external SATA - USB enclosure. Upgraded the Boocamp partition using Winclone 2.3.3 - the previous version would not work.īacked up the Macintosh partition using Time Capsule. I am running Snow Leopard with Win 7 on Bootcamp.
