One can make an image of a hard drive by using a disk imaging utility software like Norton Ghost or Far Stone Total Recovery, these utilities will walk through the imaging process of the disk step by step and this will provide a backup when there is problem.

I want to upgrade my old hard drive by plugging in a new one into my eSATA port creating a system image on that new hard drive and then replacing the hard drives. Is this possible?

Yes, it is possible to upgrade your old hard drive by connecting a new one via the eSATA port. You can create a system image of your current hard drive and save it to the new drive. Once the imaging process is complete, you can replace the old hard drive with the new one, ensuring that you restore the system image onto it. Just make sure the new drive is compatible with your system and that you have the necessary software to create and restore the image.

How do you change a internal hard drive to a external hard drive?

The easiest way to make an internal hard drive portable is to purchase what's called a hard drive enclosure. Hard drive enclosures are kits that have everything you need to make your own portable hard drive. Make sure you get a hard drive enclosure that matches the size and interface type as your hard drive, as well as the means of connectivity that you wish. As an example, you can have a 3.5" IDE hard drive enclosure that connects to your computer with a USB cable. Most computer stores have hard drive enclosure. The best place to get one is probably tigerdirect.com. There are many of them available on eBay.
