Moving email and address book to new drive

I had a 320GB drive failure and installed a new 500 GB and formatted and
completely reloaded all my software on the clean disk.

I installed the 320GB drive as my 2nd (D drive and can access most of my
business files but I cannot get my old emails and address book from my old
drive.

Is there a file I can rename in my new drive (i.e. a made up example of
OULTOOKLIB to OUTLOOKLIBNEW or OUTLOOKEMAILS to OUTLOOKEMAILSNEW) and copy
and paste the original files from the old drive to the new? I would rename
the files on the new drive just in case something went wrong. It would allow
me to recover.

You'll find countless posts here that tell you how to migrate your Outlook
Data File from one location to another.
