    Is there any utility out there to do an exact copy from one drive to
    another? the source is about 200k bigger in size then the destination
    drive, with plenty of free space on it.

    They are both 'identical' drives, wd1200jb but apparently the newer one is
    slightly different, as it shows up as about 200k smaller. I need a way to
    copy the source drive onto the smaller one so that i can set up a raid
    mirror. i have another wd drive thats the same size as the smaller of the two.

    Ian
