yeah, you can just stick it in the PC (as a slave drive)
go to my computer
right click on the new drive and choose "Format" from the drop down
menu it gives. It will always ask you how you want to format it.
Just make sure you have all your jumpers for both drives set up correctly.
Once it is formatted you can then move the jumper to make it the master drive and move it on the ribbon cable to the master slot.
Install Windows and all that other stuff you will need. Or just
keep it as the slave drive.
