I am putting my system together tonight and I am using the old HDD out of my old one.

Master: Maxtor 120GB
Slave: Maxtor 60 GB

I am copying all of the slave data to the Master, and then installing my old Slave as the New Master.

Questions:
1) As my old slave was already formatted, will I need to run Maxblast to reformat? Or will I be allowed to continue right from the Bios into a Windows Install (Fresh)?

2) Will I be able to install my old Master as the new slave and keep all of my programs / files/ etc?

3) What can I do to wipe windows from my old Master/ New Slave while keeping my old data programs?
