Old Hard drive

by cakester . Updated 18 years, 1 month ago

I have a DELL desktop. My hard drive was failing so I replaced it with a new one from Dell ( Maxtor,SATA 150 HDD, 250 GB maxline III)
I ran XP media center berfore and now installed XP pro. All is great but I now realize I did not remove all my files from the old harddrive and would like to know if I can safely replace the current good harddrive ( win XP pro)with the old one ( win XP media) and reboot without causing any problems? Is there a better way to do this? There is room in my system for two hard drives, but I am not sure on the procedure to connect both. Any help would be appreciated.
