If you eventually want to boot from the new drive you should copy the
system files to it.  You can do this either when you format it or by
typing SYS D: at the command line.

From Windows95, start an MS-DOS session and type:

XCOPY C:\ D:\ /E /H /K

Assuming the drives are IDE, to swap the them over you need to set the
drive you want as  drive C: to be the master and D: as the slave.  

This is acheived via a set of jumpers located on the drive.  These are
usually marked on the casing but if it's unclear post the make and
model numbers and someone should be able to give you more details.
