Hi,
Which controller are you using? Is there a Raid array? If it is just a single drive that would probably work, however do a file level backup and not a block level backup would be better because a block level backup would copy the medium errors to the new drive.

On board perc. No raid.
Single drive - I'm not sure in understand how cloning the drive would copy disk medium errors?
