Google for Norton Ghost or Acronis True Image. These will do what you
want.

Yes it is possible. You plug your second drive into your system as a Slave
device. (making sure the existing one is Master). You can then use imaging
software, to create an exact copy of your existng drive.
Software ?. You`ve got a choice. Some are XXcopy, XXclone, Ghost and Acronis
True image. There are of course others. Hope this helps.
