Moving to new system

Hi there, I'm unsure of whether this is a dumb question or not, but here it is.

 

I'm getting my new PC tomorrow, Intel processor, motherboard etc... My question is, would I be able to use the same storage devices that I have in my current PC on an AMD processor and motherboard. 

I'm asking this to see whether I can save about 2 hours of my time re-configuring everything and sorting all my logins out.

 

Thank you :)

Yeah I don't mind about them, I will have some time in the near future to go through and decide whether to keep or remove them. But cheers for letting me know, much appreciated!
