okay
i have a POS dell
and i would like to build a new rig, something simple as a small server and bit-torrent machine
when i build my new rig
could i install say XP on it, and once its running add the old HDD from my dell
and keep any files that i wanted to?
or should i just try and transfer them over via LAN?
ive also been thinking about using Ubuntu and just porting over my old files......
there wouldnt be any way to make my new rig a dual boot machine
where i add the old HDD and have that as the second OS could i?
