Question : SQL Server database move question

I use SQL Server 2005. I want to move a database that is around 500 Gb to a new server. Now i am comfortable with moving that database by detaching, move the  mdf and ldf files to the new server and attach the mdf and the ldf files. so that was easy. Is there any other easy way because since this database is around 500Gb it takes 4-5 hours for me.
and one more thing after i have moved the database and attached it to the new server, how do i move all the jobs associated with that database and also the logins that is also associated. PLease show me the step by step instructions since i have never done that.
