[QUOTE="Collin Bl, post: 854290, member: 95994"] You can make bootable copies with Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper but TM has historic copies of files but is not a bootable back up in itself. You can boot off a new copy of the OS on the new HD and then apply all updates and then copy back all your files off TM but that is a bit slower compared to just booting off the bootable copy and copying it all back to a new Hard Drive.
