It is seriously doubtful that the old drive can be slaved in a modern computer. Most likely it uses MFM or RLL encoding (pre IDE) and would need an adapter to work in a modern machine, if it would work at all. Floppy drives still use MFM encoding but the interface precludes connecting to a floppy controller. If a direct cable connection can be established between the two machines, it might be possible to transfer data. XP might balk, but it is worth trying if the data is valuable. You might also have to transfer the data to floppies.
