Vram,
Win 7 is much smarter than some people think.
You can simply use Win 7 Backup and Restore to create a system image of your HDD.
Then boot from a Win 7 System Repair Disc and choose the option to restore.
I've done this several times, especially when I was testing Win 7's backup and Restore for all kinds of things and everything works like a charm. The only thing I add is that the SSD was Trim capable.
If you were trying to move a Linux OS then you would have to play all of the alignment games. Win 7 is going to take care of that for you. MS made some changes from the XP, Vista days as to alignment of partitions/volumes such that you will have no problems.
