They can be mixed, all you need to do is set the SATA drive to boot
first (in the BIOS) so that you can have the 80gb drive IDE as the
backup.

Hiya gang,
One of my hdd's has finally croaked (SMART said it was hardware....made all kinds of wacky noises too).
My main hdd is 80GB and an ide, the new drive is sata 160GB. I got the new drive to replace my main hdd, so I can move the old main one and make it my backup drive.
The new hdd is SATA. Will it mess anything up to have an SATA drive and an ide drive on my system like this?
