was thinking of doing the same thing, replace my primary IDE maxtor

space, however i was told that my computer would possibly look for the
drive with the SLOWEST speeds..that being the maxtor 30 gb with 2mb

Your computer will boot to whatever disk you tell it to boot to. Set
the boot order in the BIOS.
I promptly decided to leave both IDE hard drives unplugged.
and just use the Sata 320 gb drive in and that's all. Someone might want
to check me on this. I know there might be a way to make this do-able
but I don't think it's worth the sacrifice in speed or performance.
