It's likely your new PC will have one cable to connect both HDDs, an 80-wire IDE cable with two female ports to connect the HDDs to. You should connect both HDDs to this one cable and set the jumpers to 'CS' - cable select. Note that both HDDs should be set to CS and put the old drive in the middle of the cable and the master drive at the top connection.
You may run into some random errors having the old OS on the old drive. You may want to wipe the old OS first thing when you attach the old drive to the new PC and get it up and running.
