Get an IDE cable. Plug one end of the cable into the IDE HD and the 
other end into the computer IDE interface. Connect the power...you 
may need to grab the power cable from one of the SCII drives. Copy 
your files over. Install a system on the IDE. Remove the SCII stuff.

Don't connect or disconnect any cables with the computer running!
