Accepted Answer

As long as it is SATA hard disks and not IDE or something else, this should not be a problem in principle. 

PS: I recommend that you state the product designation or manufacturer number of your hard drive when asking such questions.

Answer

Depending on the SATA type, the transfer rate will then vary.
