My System Specs

Default want to switch out a 60GB SSD for a 120gb SSD do I clone the Drive?
Ok I installed server2012 onto my older kingston SSD which is 64gb and I really notice the difference speed compared to when I installed win7 on the same drive and since the difference is huge I have decided to switch out the 64gb for my RMAed Intel 510 120gb SSD but I really don't want to go through the hassle of reinstalling every single thing and then turning it into a workstation I am just not sure what I need to do this and not lose anything.
then I am thinking of using the 64gb drive for my Linux folder ( since the season is pretty much here :) )

The western digital HDD software will migrate from any drive to another one so long as there is at least one WD drive recognised by the system.
