It depends, if your old hard drive is SATA you are fine, if it is IDE you would have to check to see if you your motherboard has an IDE connection.

If it doesn't, you could transfer them over your network if you have one set up, or failing that if you have a cross over cable you can set up an ad-hoc network between the two PCs and transfer that way.
