I always unplug all uninvolved drives to avoid unexpected problems.
You shouldn't have to change the BIOS boot order each time. Set the preferred HD to boot first, then if you want to boot another HD or device use the one-time BIOS Boot menu key given on first screen. Every computer has one:
Asus - F8
HP/Compaq - Esc
Sony - F2
Acer - F12
Gateway - F10 or F12
eMachnes - F10
Toshiba - F12
Dell - F12
IBM/Lenovo - the blue Thinkvantage button, or OneKey button next to Power button.
If you don't like this arrangement after trying it, then to create a Windows Dual Boot install EasyBCD 2.0 to Win7 to add the other OS to a Windows-managed Dual Boot menu.
