hyper-v

I have two questions,

Can I use existing 2nd Hard Drive as External Hard Drive inside Virtual Server Instance running on same machine?
If I use right now Virtual Server 2005 and run my server, tomorrow if I buy HyperV on different machine, can I just simply use same Virtual Hard Drive in Hyper V Without having to reinstall everything?
