My friend is giving me a second HDD from his pc. I plan to put it in my machine as well as the one I have got at the moment, so I plan to have two hard drives. My question are as follows:
1. The HDD I am getting has alot of data on it, including an OS. Can I completly wipe thst HDD so I can use it in mine to store music etc?
2. The cable that goes from my HDD to my mobo has only got one socket, can I buy another cable, which goes to both of the HDD'S and the mobo.
And will any of this put my primary HDD at risk...because I literlly can't afford to lose it. I am not sure what to do with the jumpers once i get this HDD, something about primary and secondary.
Please help me.
Thanks
