Yes, as long as you can obtain all necessary drivers and software. I would strongly recommend that you use the Acer utility to burn a full set of recovery media before you do anything.

I did the same thing on my Acer laptop. Acer has all the drivers on their website. I downloaded them to a CD and it works great, doubled my hard drive space.
