I recently did just what you are planning to do. I replaced my 60GB IBM 60GXP with a Maxtor SATA 120GB disk. I encountered no problems what-so-ever. I simply used ghost to duplicate the partition(s). WinXP booted up fine afterwards. You might have to rearrange the startup devices in BIOS.
But if you going to do a fresh install anyway, I think you will have to press F6 (I think it is, it says what key on the bottom of the screen) in the beginning of the installation, when it ask you to press the key if you have any SCSI or RAID devices. You will also have to have the SATA drivers on a floppy or perhaps on the other disk, as long as you know where they are, as the install itself does not have support for it. Also, if you are going to leave the 60GB in the system, the rearranging in BIOS is necessary.
