it might, try it

there will be MAJOR issues though. it will think that all of your programs are installed, etc. better off to do a total copy.

what are the advantages of having Serial ATA as the interface of your HDD

HDD 101

Quote:

faster transfer rate than IDE and usally quicker seek time.

Quicker seek time is a benifit of the drive mechanics, between similar model drives (differing only interface) there's no difference. As for the transfer rate, theres also probably no difference as a whole and its moreso an onpaper advantafe

Well, your gona need Raptors for 3-5 Seconds, but if you want to use your HDD that you have now, run msconfig and take off anything on startup you dont need.

Raptors wont load windows in 3-5 seconds. iRam or other solidstate approaches might work but raptors sure as hell wont
