    I have a clevo np8660tu with a 160gb hard drive installed right now. How easy would it be to install the Seagate Momentus 320gb hard drive I've been looking at? Is it as easy as just pulling the old hard drive out and putting the new one in then running the vista boot disc? Or is it more complex than this? Keep in mind that I just purchased this laptop and have no interest in saving anything on the current hard drive since their is basically nothing on it.
