Swapping Hard Drives

Status
Not open for further replies.
Hello,
I'd like to connect HDD with Windows to use Windows, and to use OSX disconnect Windows HDD and conncet HDD with OSX. Is it possible? I currently have Windows 7 installed on one HDD, and I would use this guide http://www.tonymacx86.com/yosemite-...-x-yosemite-any-supported-intel-based-pc.html to install Yosemite on second HDD. Would exchanging HDD's work?
I use a http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00P2PNOOM/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=tonymacx86com-20
and a http://www.amazon.com/KingWin-2-5-Inch-Internal-Tray-Less-KF-251-BK/dp/B00475DQ6Y/ref=pd_sim_pc_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=131GE6KZR8DK39MRKCVY in by builds.

This lets me swap out any size drive and have a different OS on each drive. Only one OS is connected to the system: the boot OS, so it cannot mess with any other OS installed.
I went this way when I started having too many OS's and not enough SATA ports to install them all.
