Hook both hard drives to the A1200 at the same time.  Simply copy between them after you partition and format the new one.

The floppy port is not IDE.  You do not hook hard drives to it.  You need to have an IDE cable with three connectors on it.  One for each of the hard drives, and one to connect to the IDE port (not floppy port).

Yes.  You're going to need either one or two cables depending on the connectors available on each.  If using two cables, then you're going to need one of those buffered IDE hardware add-ons like PowerIDE (or called something similar to that).
