Replacing SSD with bigger SSD

My original build SSD is a 60GB, I installed W7 on it, some programs and away we went... never a problem.

It has become too small, however, and I will be replacing it with a 128GB or maybe even a 256GB if I can swing it when the Moment of Truth comes.

Question: Will I be able to just clone my 60GB over to the new SSD... without any problems with partition size or alignment since I'm going from SSD to SSD? I don't really want to clean install W7 again and go through all the tweaking I had to do to get where I am now.

I'll be going from my OCZ Agility3 to probably a Plextor M3 or Samsung 830 , if there is anything to that.

Yes - proportional cloning using bootable media is the best way. To get correct lignment use a version of cloneware 2010 or newer.
