I should probably mention that right now I have something installed on Win 7 called EasyBCD that presents a menu on startup which allows me to choose between Win and Linux. Right now the Win drive is the primary drive (sda).

That means that in your bios setup, sda is designated as your boot device and your system bios will look there for boot code on that drive to boot the system. As pan64 noted you should be fine if you install ubuntu on your new sda drive as it will install the linux bootloader, grub, there on sda and automatically detect your Mint installation on sdb and create a boot entry for it. After installation of ubuntu studio when you boot, grub will present you with a boot selection screen which will give you the option to boot into either ubuntu studio or Mint.
