Indeed... and if you're planning to throw the old Ubuntu disc away and 
get a new larger one you might even consider backing up the whole 
Windows drive onto that "old" drive, just to calm your fears.... in my 
experience it has never been necessary to restore from such backups, but 
to have a complete backup of Windows can never hurt - it being such a 
tempestuous Operating System and all ;-)
