On any HDD that has had a operating system setup on it the drive will have an active partition set especially if more than 1 logical drive has been setup ie C and D drives besides the cdroms etc. If you remove it and fit it into another box then you will have to set up C: as inactive with Fdisk or SuperFdisk even if it has been setup as a slave drive or else it will conflict with the operating system on the original HDD and fail to boot.
WRONG...... If he puts the HD in another computer it will work as a secondary aslong as it is not set to master.
