the title pretty much says it! I'm replacing the hd in my black early 2008 MacBook 2.4 with a(n) Hitachi 500Gb 7200rpm drive. I am running Lion 10.7.1 and have CarbonCopyCloner available. I bought the kit with enclosure from OWC.

am I right in thinking I can clone the new hd in the enclosure and then swap the drives, or can I install the new drive, then clone from the old hd in the enclosure?

do I need to do anything differently with Lion? I have my Snow Leopard discs, but I do not have a Lion image.

thanks! grin
