XCopy won't do it. Use True Image, or Symantec Norton Ghost instead. Didn't

Acronis Easy Migrate does a good job. Might even still have a free fully
functional 15 day trial download of it on their site.

Go to the drive manufacturers website and download their free drive
image(copy/transfer) tool.

eg for Segate's Disk Wizard :
