- Connect the new drive to your USB SATA adapter/dock/whatever...
- Use Disk Utility to partition the new drive GUID and HFS+ Extended Journaled...
- Use Super Duper to copy your internal drive to the new one...
- Restart from the new drive (while still docked) to make sure life is good...
- Seven screws later your new drive will be inside your MacBook.

why do you have to partition it Guid and HFS+ extended??
