The OS and applications wont use more than 20 gigs.
So if i were you (depending how old the HD is) id set the old disk as master
so you can run your OS and applications as you used to and use the new
drive as a secundary and store your data on it as soon as you get things running.
btw (but thats just my humble opinion) its not smart to use a large drive (> 40 gig) for you OS since your OS requires a lot of disk reading/writing and large drives crash faster.
Ideal setup: small disk (80 max) for your OS and apps.
Larger secudairy drives for data storage.
