I wouldn't mount an old disk in a new computer. It's worth getting a new drive, they are pretty cheap anyways. Then you will have equipment of just about equal age in the computer. They will have been produced with the same technology and not be worn out or so from already being active for three or more years. It will just save you from potential data loss and crashes due to the fact that one of the disks might not cope with the pace of the rest of the new system. Equipment of equal length is key to have a top system running as smooth as possible.
