i have a master drive and a slave drive. my slave is getting pretty old and i really have no use for it...so i was wondering, if i were to go to windows explorer and copy everything from (master) C:\ to D:\, would i then be ablee to pull out the master, configure the slave to be the master (and only harddrive), and then fdisk /mbr on it to make it run as normal...

i ask more for understanding than practicality, but this may be useful to know if i have to restore my system some day...
