Hi there its Anthony here,
I want to upgrade to windows 7 ultimate from XP pro as my current OS using the Parallels Desktop Upgrade to windows 7 which sounds cool! However at the same time I want to install and add a new 1Tb hard drive as the existing one is too small and almost full. I want this new bigger hard drive to become my new 'C' drive. Does the Parallels software allow me to do this easily?
 
With operating system as large and power-hungry as Windows XP, it shouldn't be surprising that many users will need to upgrade their hard drive or even their entire Windows XP systems.

Either way, some or all of the files on the old hard disk will need to be transferred to the new hard drive, and this can be a difficult task. Sure, you can simply install Windows XP from scratch and then proceed to reinstall all your applications, configure all your settings, and rewrite all your documents, but that's not exactly the most practical solution. Besides, your Freecell statistics would be lost forever.

You can transfer the data from one drive to another (or one system to another) in any of several ways, explained in the following solutions. The one you choose depends on your available hardware and your specific needs. If you have just purchased a new hard disk, you'll need to prepare the disk by partitioning and formatting it before you continue.

I think you only can instal windows 7 when you remove old windows XP,after you can install win 7
Good luck!
