I have a G4 867 mhz computer which is right now running my OS X 10.1.5 server. The environment which this server is in is a printshop which transfers files between the graphics station and the server. There are only 5 - 10 people connecting to this server EVER. This server is used very minimally.
The Server has two 64 Gig HardDrives

We have a graphic designer who has been using a G4 400 machine which I need to reformat and reinstall software upon.

My plan:
I want to exchange the two computers. I want to make the G4 400 the Server machine and the G4 867 the graphic designer's workstation. The goal is to give the much better computer to the Graphic Designer whose work is much more user intensive than the server

My two question is:
1. Am I overlooking anything in this plan?

2. Can I take the two 64 gig Hard Drives out of the G4 867 and put them into the G4 400 and have OS X Server 10.1.5 function correctly or will I run into errors and have to reformat the OS and reset it up from scratch.

Any advise would be useful!!

Thanks
