well, i was messing with my old (as dirt) computer and remembered i need a little more disk space. so i took out the hd (its formatted) and was about to try to put it into my other computer but i wanted to know if i would have to install anything to get it to work, or if it would just reconize it as an extra drive.
any help would be apriciated.
the computer is just a crappy emachine, the kind you buy at best buy. about a year old. exact model is T1742 and the only extra thing i dropped in was some ram (256 i think).
