I did the same... it was really simple and works great. I would search around for some instructions and save yourself the money.

Picked-up a 60 GB yesterday. Moved the 20 GB to my bedroom. Waiting on Microsoft to send me the transfer cable. 60 GB should be perfect for me.

It's called a "Data Migration Kit" It's a cable that allows you to trnasfer your stuff from 1 HDD to another. I believe Microsoft only sends them out to those who have upgraded their systems.

The HDD when purchased alone(60,120) I believe comes with the cable

I'm still waiting for mine. Been 2+ weeks now. I had to buy one off ebay so I could transfer my data. I'm selling my 20GB this week.
