So I just picked up a SSD drive! I was wondering if I could do a fresh install of my OEM version of Windows 7 and be able to authenticate it for use. The hard drives will each use the same key and the key is only good for one PC use. They wont be running at the same time I'll use the BIOS to decide which one to boot off of.

technically thast should work, but why not have one hard drive that has ur OS and system files and just assign a letter to use the othe rhard drives and u wont need an OS on those hard drives

I hate reloading my stuff but it will work better for me with your suggestions. I don't want to take the time to go into Bios to change or have windows dual boot option.

I should really take more time to think of things before I post them...lol
