dark you want to do what Im doing now, I have a Western Digital 40Gb HDD and a Maxtor 160Gb HDD, I have Windows Xp installed on my primary HDD (40GB) and I have tons of games,mp3,movies,and programs,running off my Slave drive (160GB) my 160GB runs at 7200rpm with a 8Mb cache I notice bearly any slow down if any.
So basicaly yes you can but I recommend running on ATA/133 or ATA/100 and having a good HDD to run things of the second.
