You cannot put either the memory or the hard drive from the R400 into the new 530. The R400 uses SDRAM, the 530 uses DDR2. The R400 uses an IDE hard drive, the 530 uses SATA and does not even have an IDE controller.

You can simply install an Ethernet adapter into the R400 if it doesn't have one already, and network the 2 computers together with a switch or router or crossover cable. How are you connected to the Internet and what hardware do you use for that?
