You can search for 'Clone hard disk' to find some software like EaseUS or Acronis.

C drive should be straightforward to clone, then designate the new hard disk as your C and everything should work fine.

Cloning F and G into one drive could be trickier because one drive designation will be changed, and your original pathing might not read correctly.
