Moving old hard drives into a new computer -- does it work??

I am in the process of building a new computer.  I have two hard drives from my previous dell, one is a 160gb running win xp and the other a new 320gb I just purchased running win vista.  My question is, can I move both of these hard drives into my new computer without formatting them?? I realize my dual boot may not be hot-swappable into a new machine, but do I have any options?? I do not planning on buying a new HDD for my new computer, and I have a lot of files, pictures, etc that I can't access right now on both of these hard drives. I don't want to lose that data if I don't need to..If anyone could help me, I would greatly appreciate it...thanks!!
