I'm in the early planning stages of building a new system as my current system is aging and slowly failing. I currently have 2 SATA hard drives and they have only been data drives without ever having an OS installed: a 1 TB SATA 3 and an older 200 GB SATA 1.5
It's been a long time since I've worked with new hardware, would a modern system support these older drives? I can easily migrate all my files onto the 1 TB drive and use the 200 GB drive as my OS system drive. For the time being, I'm trying to figure out what resouces I have already that'll fit into a new system. I'm know it won't be peak performance, right now I'm just looking to make a system that works instead of peak performance.
I prefer to keep my data (music, movies, documents, etc.) on a drive seperate than the drive with the OS.
