I'm assuming you are wanting to take fedora from the old drive and put it on 
the new one? In that case, you could probably somehow use dd to do it. 
However, an solution that I know would work is to use g4u located here: 
http://www.feyrer.de/g4u/. It will allow you to perfectly copy everything 
from one hard drive to the other.
