More SATA install help

[scotagne]

I have a master 40Gb WD hd as a windows xp system drive. There is a 250Gb WD slave drive. I want to upgrade my system drive to a Raptor. Can I just copy all the folders to it, and reset the jumpers? What I am saying is that I wanted to avoid re-installing everything. Sounds lazy. Could someone please point me to a tutorial about upgrading to a Raptor. Thanks in advance.

System:
AMD Athlon 64 3000+
ECS 755-A2 Mobo
Winblows XP sp1
1 gig RAM
Nvidia 5700 Ultra 128 megs
40 gig WD Caviar
250 gig WD Caviar
Plextor dvd-rw

Can't you use Drive Image or Ghost to make an image of your current system, install Raptor, then reload the image?
