Could I do this?

I have Win 7 installed on a regular, really crappy HDD on my laptop but want an SSD.

Could i just leave Win 7 on my HDD, put in an SSD, install Win 7 on the SSD, use the SSD as my main drive, but swap in the HDD for the SSD when I want to add pictures? That's really all I'd need to store on there that takes up a lot of space which I wouldn't put on my SSD (my music library I want on the SSD).

As long as I'm not using both drives at the same time there should be no conflicts, correct?

Thanks!

Sounds a bit awkward but should do.
Why not use an external USB housing and put the HD in there?
