It's pretty easy man. You won't lose it, just have the same CFW you were previously on ready on a USB stick and when you get to the screen to update just do it via Storage Media like you normally would :p you will have to reinstall homebrew apps and all that after you replace it.
is it going to ask me from where to install because in this video there is no options from where to install the update :

You won't lose your jailbreak. Just is the video Helping linked and you should be fine. 500 GB is plenty enough compared to 80 GB. You shouldn't really need 1 TB.

1. Put the new hdd into the ps3
2. Boot ps3 into recovery mode
3. Select option "restore ps3 system"
This will format the hdd to the ps3
Once it's done, you will be brought to a black screen asking for your last cfw.
4. Reinstall your cfw
