Disk downsize question

I seem to read different information on here about restoring to a smaller disk.

I have a 100 GB notebook drive, all 1 partition with 16 GB data on it.
I want to clone to an external USB 120 GB drive,
then restore to a new bare metal notebook drive that is 60 GB.

Will ATI8 downsize to the 60GB drive?

Or, should I restore from a backup rather than a clone?

Lastly, is build 800 the most receint ATI8 build?

Thanks,
eeh42
