Updrade of hard drive & movement of data

[baala]

I have recently upgraded by OS to Windows 10 - 32 bit

I need advice on two things:

1. I  am currently on 160 GB - and planning to upgrade it to a 500 GB or 1 TB hard drive with a 7200 RPM.

Please let me know, what does this laptop support.... (I am in India

2. Need to move my Windows to the new hard drive, as is, without re-installing.

Need advice for the same.

Appreciate your quick reply.

Regards

Yes it will support a 500 gig or Terrabyte 7200 rpm 2.5 inch SATA hard drive. Your installation can be transferred to a new larger drive using cloning. There are several programs that can do this from CLonezilla (free) to paid software like Acronis True Image. You will need a SATA to usb adapter to hold the new drive during the clone process.
