Your not planning on using the OS that is currently on the old hard drive are you? If you are, then forget about it, it won't work. You will need to reformat it and reinstall windows.

If that hard drive is just a back up with all your music and videos, then it will be fine, but by all means check it out with a good virus detector first. It will never hurt to be careful.
