I did something similar with my trusty old ZEOS-486/100-64MB machine,
which has been running NT since the BETA days in early '93, along with
WFWG 3.11 in a dual-boot configuration.  Now I have the 2 original
340MB Seagates (VLB-IDE) primarily set up for old 16-bit DOS/WFWG apps,
plus a HP C3010/A2446A 2GB 5.25" SCSI drive set up for most of NT and
companion WIN32 apps (such as NT-Visual C++, etc.).  The "C3010" came
out of my '917/LX when I upgraded to some newer/bigger drives; and
all that I had to do was bolt it in the ZEOS case, push the connectors
on and restart.  The NT disk administrator saw it there and added it
to the configuration.  After about 5 minutes to format and partition,
I was in business.  Incidentally, you don't really need a "Pentium"
to run NT Workstation with reasonable performance.  There is also
a Micron dual-processor box here (Pentium-Pro 200s) running NT
Server; but for most applications, the old DX4/100 gets the job done
just fine.  I usually do the big compilations on the Micron Box since
there is a noticable improvement there, but for day-to-day chores,
I use the old ZEOS (Internet access, word processing, terminal
emulation, testing, etc.).
