I have bookmarks already set, but I want to add bookmarks from a crashed harddrive, is this possible?
I am using Firefox 3.6.3 and I have a number of bookmarks set up already. However, there were a number of other bookmarks on another hard drive of mine that crashed. I want to know if it is possible for me to keep all the bookmarks I currently have, but add the bookmarks from the dead hard drive without overwriting anything.

Well, we have a few Knowledge Base articles regarding importing bookmarks that I can refer you to.
Import data from another browser
To be safe, it might be prudent to export your current bookmarks and then import them back into your recovered profile.
Export Firefox bookmarks to an HTML file to back up or transfer bookmarks
hmmmm! not really sure if it works out. May be try www.safecopybackup.com. They have 3GB free trial. Hope it helps you.
You can only add (append or merge) bookmarks if you import an HTML backup. If you only have a JSON backup on the old drive (e.g. in the bookmarkbackups folder) then you first need to export the current bookmarks to an HTML file Import that HTML backup after you have restored all the bookmarks from that JSON backup to get the old bookmarks back.
