Update: I managed to get my new 250Gb HDD cloned off my previous 80Gb HDD and everything is working perfectly.

Thanks to everyone for their advice, much appreciated.

I can't believe I can see that I have 180Gb free!!!! WOW

I did the same yesterday. After Repairing Permissions on the new HD I get the following:
"Repairing permissions for “Macintosh HD”
ACL found but not expected on "Applications/Utilities".
ACL found but not expected on "Applications".
ACL found but not expected on "Library".

Permissions repair complete"

Is this something I need to worry about or remedy?

I used Super Duper! to clone the new drive

No, you don't need to worry about that. If you care, some people have reported that they no longer have those messages after installing the combo update for their particular version of OS X. So, if you have OS X 10.5.2, if you download and install the OS X 10.5.2 Combo Update overtop of your existing install, those messages may go away.

Combo Updater solved it.
