Ahhhh Yes...  Gotcha..

Used to be able to do that VERY easily with Disk Utility!  Have not had to do it in a LONG time so do not know if that functionality was depricated to force people to use Time Machine....

If you are in a pinch, and speed is not a factor and you are good with a CLI..
dd works well.  I believe that is what I used the last time I had to duplicate a drive.  In fact if memory serves me correctly.  It was an emergency disk duplication for a failed WINDOWS PC at work.  Sometimes having a Mac Notebook comes in handy in a Windows enviroment.  Since MS does not provide such a utility for free.
