Good and maybe bad...

As long as the disc is not in some odd format, it should be fine for the documents. A Word .docx file for 32-bit Word works just fine on 64-bit Word.

Archived (backed up) preferences could easily be negatively affected if you migrate from 32-bit to 64-bit software as the programs may well be written quite differently.
