Hey everyone, first time poster here.

I'm currently running Windows 7 Ultimate on a 1TB hdd. I have an extra 250GB hdd that I'm not even using at the moment. I'd like to know if it's possible to install OS X on the 250GB hdd and be able to choose which OS to start up on restart. I tried searching around the forums and google but didn't come across any solid answers.

Any info's greatly appreciated!

Ofcourse this is possible you only have to search around for a tutorail. If you go to forum go to the ''search block'' and type dual boot

K, I came across a lot of useful info.. but mostly talking about installing to a partition. It IS possible to install osx directly to a seperate harddrive rather than a partition of the drive I'm currently using, right?
