Upgrading 360 drives. How does info transfer?

[Alone Disciple]

Sorry if this seems like an uber noob question, but I seriously don't know and want to upgrade my 360 drive.

I have the standard 20GB drive and with much DLC in the form of RB & GH songs, along with 2 of the 5 Fall out DLC, I don't have much space left.

I'd like to get a new 60 or 100 GB 360drive, but I'm not sure I understand how to migrate all the info over. If I have Fallout 3 saves and previous Fallout content, and I buy a new larger drive, and then say download the remaining Fallout DLC, will my core saves migrate over?

What about RB songs? I already have quite a few songs...Do I have to re-download them all, or can I just migrate the tracks over somehow?

Sorry....I really am hoping someone can explain how the HD upgrade works here? I don't want to lose game progress say if I'm 1/2 way done with GTA IV, pop a new drive in and have to start all over again.

Anyone?

i think when you buy the 120 it comes with a transfer cable to help you transfer everything over or you can order one from there website i belive dont know if you have to pay for it, personaly i wouldnt want to pay for it becasue when are you ever going to use it again...

I got the 120gb HD and it comes with a cable and a CD so you can transfer all data without much effort. it has like 5 steps to the whole process, no fuss.

You can use either a transfer cable, or you can use a USB stick to move your saves over (but not downloads). Additionally, once you have your profile on the new HDD you can redownload anything you bought in the past.
I would personally go with the 120gb just so you have plenty of room for the games on demand service.

Buy the 120gb for starters, and follow the instructions, all my stuff carried over fine.

Once you recover your gamertag on the new hard drive you can redownload everything linked to that tag. I believe the hard drives come with a usb cable you can use to transfer from one drive to the other although I'm not 100% sure on that.
