Default Pro tools conflict with older version on 2nd HD

Hi,
I have two Hard Drives, one running 10.5.7. and the other one 10.3.9. I still keep the 10.3.9. cause I'm using Pro Tools 6.4 and have a very good setup. I want to try to install Pro Tools 8 LE on the Leopard Hard Drive but am wondering if it might cause any conflicts with the older version, even if it is on a different drive. I'm worried it might bring some problems and don't want to risk messing up with the configuration I already have (plugins, presets, preferences and all). I still want to be able to go back and use PT 6.4 restarting the computer with the 10.3.9 OS system, since some sessions have plug-in I can't transfer right away (they're older and I can't get the newer ones right away).
Does anyone have experience with that?
It's Pro Tools LE with Mbox 1 (I'll be using the same Mbox for both PT).
Thanks,
J.

There won't be any issues having different versions on separate drives. I'm doing the same thing and it's working fine. The only reason I still go back to OSX10.4/PT7.3 is for tracking stability on this old G5.

Thanks for reply.
Couple of more doubts. When installing PT 8 it will update the firmware and when I go back to 6.4 it will be looking for a 6.4 firmware version, I've been told. But since it's on a different hard drive, it wouldn't be a problem i guess, right?
Thanks
