Yes you can, and they don't have to be the same size/make etc, as modern BIOS autodetect the drive.

Get a couple of HDD caddies. Then you can simply change the drive between reboots without having to open up the machine.

I've got a machine with 3 drives in caddies with different OS just to play around with. One with XP, one with Win2K and one with Linux.
