You could always ...Take out both HDD's, stick them in external USB HDD enclosures for a tenner each, put Linux on one and Windows on the other, then plug in the one you want to use at any given time and boot off it .. ??
OK is the drive you've found IDE or SATA?, if it has a million pins at one end it's IDE, and as long as your other drive is also IDE (and you only have one installed) you WILL be able to connect it, as you can connect 2 IDE devices to the same cable, you just have to set one as master and the other as slave.if it's SATA, you will need to see if there is a spare SATA connector on your motherboard.
