BleepingComputer.com: Dual Booting from different HDD's

I'm first posting here because it is mainly a Ubuntu question.

I'm going to be purchasing a new HDD for my comp so that I can have a dedicated Win (7/Vista/XP) and a dedicated Ubuntu drive. The new HDD (for Win) is nothing intensive, a relatively small (160 GB) at 7200 RPM. I'm just too cheap to get a SSD or a 10000 RPM drive . I'm mainly using the Win HDD for games, iTunes (because it seems syncing in Linux requires jailbreak), and Adobe CS4. Ubuntu HDD- everything else, including movie and music playback, surfing, and all document storage.

Will GRUB be able to boot from this new HDD, and if so how will I be able to add it (automaticaly or "sudo gedit /etc...")

Or will I have to edit the BIOS to access the new HDD

Have a look at this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/How_to_du...tely_on_two_HDs

If you plan on quad-booting, make sure you first install all the Windows OSes in order of release (XP first, then Vista, then Win 7), then install Ubuntu afterwards.

EDIT: The link above uses GRUB Legacy, not the new GRUB2, so the commands to troubleshoot any issues will be different.

Certainly wouldn't be quad booting, just unsure of which OS I'll install.

Thanks for the link.
