I wouldn't install an OS on anything except an SSD these days. But it wont have any bad affect on the system as long as you're only using it to store a few things on it. I'm using a 1TB HDD which is about 5-6 years old just for storage, and it works perfectly fine as it only spools up when I want to access something from it.
