Moving OS to a new disk?

I have 2 SATA HD's. A new one is much faster than the one that came with my system.

The new HD has a 40MB faster xfer rate than the present HD.
I want to setup the new HD as the system disk and keep the older one as
basically a big storage HD which means transfering the OS to the new HD. I
have Acronis TI which lets me create an image of any HD.

The old HD is 160GB, new one is 200GB. Physically swapping the HD's is not a
problem. Since the HD's are not the same size will this be a problem?

During the logical swapping, is there anything specifically i should be aware of or looking out for??

I hope what i want to do is clear enough....

thanks,
