I decided not to reinstall any data since all my pertinent contact/mail info is on the server. The install took 5 minutes. The boot took another 3. Now I'm going through enterprise activation. This is easily the fastest upgrade I've ever done, and I've been through it loads of times with the 8700 and 8320.
