Will I still be able to access existing Ubuntu?

[glad62]

my planned new system will have new
120 gb SSD 1. Windows 7 64
" SSD 2. Flight sim Apps

from my old system I will install
HDD 1. with existing ubuntu working intallation (plus Win XP install)
HDD 2. for Data of both file formats

I want Windows 7 to be my most optimised config. for gaming (only) but continue to use Ubuntu for
day to day computer needs.

How should I physically install these drives to achieve dual boot?
Any thoughts would be appeciated.

I would think you just need to choose your old ubuntu/xp drive as the boot device in the BIOS
and then once logged in to Ubuntu, run

sudo update-grub

To be safe I wouldn't even connect the ubuntu/xp drive until after the
SSD Windows7 install.

Of Course. Dummy me.

+1 This is indeed the safest option when you're dual booting, as this prevents accidental installation of GRUB to the Windows drive.
