    In windows 7 i created a full image restore of one tera hard drive (windows image backup).
    This hard drive had 512 kb sectors , now i bought a new one tera hard drive with the new 512 emulated sectros (4096kb physical) , system restore image will work now? or i must format the new hard drive from the beggining?
