ghost copy of my harddrive

[skasol]

how do I go about making a complete image of my current hard drive and storing it in an external drive for me to be able to then switch my current ssd for a second one and just install the image onto that one.

Thank you in advance.

Carbon Copy Cloner will make a bootable clone of your drive. It's excellent for what you describe.
