Move Time Machine disk

Hi!

I have an external drive that I use for my Time Machine backups for my Macbook. I would like to move this to my Mac Mini, share the drive and keep backing up to the drive over the network.

Is it possible to just move it or will it think it's a new drive and I need to format etc? I want to keep my old backups, of course.

Anything I'll need to be careful with when doing this?
