Hi

I bought a second internal hard drive for my current computer about 8 months ago, and I am now buying a new computer. The second drive has all of my films/shows/music etc. on it, and I want to transfer it to the new computer without losing any data. It's a SATA drive, 400gb.

To be able to access this drive on my new computer, will it be as easy as plugging it in and opening windows explorer?
