Default Wheel Bearings!

Surprisingly, I didn't find a thread on this! Anyway, my ti rear wheel bearing is gone I believe. It has been singing for a while but wasn't completely sure that it was the problem. Now its rubbing. The noise is metal on metal noise, very obvious. When I lifted the car and pushed the rim around, the wheel was loose and just swinging. The bearings on eBay are not too expensive but I would love to hear some advices before I buy. And also, how hard is it to change it. There's two types of bearings that show, one is rotor look alike and the other one is just a cylinder looking bearing, which I believe will be harder to replace.
Oh, I wasn't sure where exactly to post this thread so I hope "suspension" was a good guess.
Thank you !
