only thing i know is to just put them on DVD-R or DVD-RW That way you can
make less cd's and cost about the same.

There are numerous programs that make exact copies of your system to
transfer to a new drive. Just make sure after you do it you change the boot
priority to make the new drive first in priority.
Drive Copy is one. Acronis Migrate Easy is another.
