In case anyone else is considering this....
I upgraded my MacBook's Hard Drive to a 250gb drive....
It was soooo easy, and work perfectly. I no longer have to give any thought to how large a file is, how much room I have available, etc.
One bit of advice though if you are going to do this... you'll need a Torx #8 screwdriver to remove the HD Sled from your current HD and attach it to your new HD.
My MacBook started out about 2 months ago with 1gb of RAM and 80gb HD... It is now perfect for me at 2gb RAM and 250gb HD... The entire cost for the RAM upgrade AND the HD upgrade was just $200.
Entire project took about 5 to 7 minutes. (not counting the cloning of the current drive.... THAT did take some time... though no effort)
