only if you have to have them on the same cable tho,

better have the 2nd hdd as a master on the secondary ide channel and your cd drive as the slave, both hdd as master and they will transfer much much quicker

run it off the ribbon cable thatisnt allready running your 1st hdd, otherwise it will be painfully slow transferring data between drives,

+ dont forget to check the jumper settings on the new drive
