well it depends on the harddrive speed but for a new harddrive that is fast it shouldnt take more then a minute at max, its not even a gigabyte.

Use a drive cloning tool, most drive manufacturers have such a utility you can download and use.
Maxtor for example have Maxblast.
What make are the drives?
