2nd HDD, install Mint on it?

[The1nonly1]

I want to install Mint onto a 2nd hard drive but dont want to mess up the MBR on my windows 7 system. Would the easist way to do this be to unplug my Windows 7 HDD and install Mint onto the 2nd drive?

I believe I would then choose the operating system by going into the BIOS, is this correct?
