128GB SSD is the size of the hard drive.


Using Super Duper would clone your hard drive but since your current HDD is larger than an SSD you might have issues. If you plan on getting the 750GB you shouldn't have any problems.

a 128gb SSD has 128gb of storage, and a 750gb HDD has 750 GB of storage. Big difference in storage capacity. SSD's are a new technology to the consumer market and are expensive, so a 750gb SSD would be VERY expensive.

Making a clone of your internal HDD to the new HDD/SDD would work and you would not have to reinstall the apps.you would need an external hard drive enclosure to clone the present internal HDD to the new one.
