    if you're planning using the second drive for extra storage, then you just need to format the drive and install it in the bay, it will be picked up, you may need to install drivers on the other computer for the drive, but it SHOULD pick up on XP.

    edit: I just reread what you said. Basically: do a complete format of whichever drive you want to use as the slave. Once you install the other one in the machine, it should automatically pick up that there are new devices, being that it's in another computer, and you should be able to install, at least in safe mode, all the drivers you need to get it to operate correctly. I would recommend, however, before you take the drive out that you remove all the devices from the current computer via control panel.
