henchman Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 I've got a Dell D820 on the way. I realised after the fact that it use the Dell media bay system. I also found out that you can use a special media bay caddy and stick a 2nd Harddrive in it. The BIOS wiull allow you to boot from the media bay. So, has anyone yet tried a dual boot using the media bay drive? Since you set the boot order in the Bios, there would be no reason to have a special bootloader, right?

Bruce Wang Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 I used to have second HDD in my IBM T40's Ultrbay with OS X installed. You're right, no need any bootloader to dualboot XP and OS X.
