Hey guys my operating system and documents are all located on my 60gb SSD however it has become apparent to me that it is not big enough and I was thinking about upgrading it buy getting a 120gb one. However I would not like to go through the hassle of reinstalling windows and all my applications on the primary drive etc. so I was wondering if it would be possible to just move the OS and my drivers onto the new SSD without much hassle.

Thanks.
