Dell Pc 40gb

How do I get my PC to work faster?
I have a Dell dimension 2400. Originally it had a P4 2.26 CPU, 512mb RAM and a 40gb HD. I then added an extra 200gb HD and found out that the extra HD is making the PC go slow, i mean really slow. So I then bought an extra 512mb of RAM and slotted it into the spare slot. It made an improvement (say about 25%30%) But overall it is still fairly slow. I was thinking of making the 200gb HD as the main drive and completely getting rid of the 40gb HD. Would that make a difference? how do I do it so I dont lose any of my files from the small drive? any help is appreciated...
It sounds like you are using a new 7200 rpm drive and an old 5400 drive, this means that the pc will run using the slowest drive speed.
The best way is to back everything up using something like Acronis etc, then reformat the new drive and and reload the image on the new drive.
Once you have the image created, remove the old drive and install the new one as the primary drive, and make sure your using a 80 wire IDE cable to make best use of your new drive, you can tell if its 80 wire, they are flatter and have colored connectors at each end.
