This is why I always keep a couple of spare hard drives on hand. Often times, mounted right in my box. I just pop off the side, move a cable and run from the test drive.

Windows 7 Ultimate x64 NM - Way South |
What I want to know about is the upgrade path from Version I to Version II. I assume it will require a clean install going from x86 to x64....but, will the data files play nice after the upgrade or need to be rebuilt from scratch? Wondering about the cost also.

I think it needs its own system, I was going to "multi boot" it with Win 7 and got this and had to back out as it said it would delete all the data on the primary HDD.

Geez, I can't even add it in VB, it needs a 160GB HDD to install. What a PITA!
I don't really want to un-hook my other HDDs.
