Is it possible to convert an MBR boot disk to a GPT boot disk without data loss?
At the moment I have 2TB hard drive I'd like to upgrade it to a 4TB drive without having to start all over again if possible.
However it is not possible for an MBR disk to see more than 2TB and there doesn't look like a way to clone the disk (at least easily) to another format (GPT) without having to start from a fresh installation and copy bits and pieces manually.

Edit: My operating system is windows 7 64 bit.
