HDD question

Is it possible to have an external switch to toggle between 2 HDDs? I would like to have one HDD with all my "home" software on it and another one that I could use just for games....I thought that that way I would not have all those peripheral apps running to slow down my games. I would, of course, have a full OS on each one and simply switch while the system is off.

You can just dual boot...install two OSes (with proper liscencing, of course. I believe this requires you to buy two copies of XP Pro if you want them both activated etc) Then restart (instead of having to switch HDDs) to boot the other OS depending on what you want to do.
