I'll probably buy a new hard drive and remplace it for one of my current hard disks, I was checking the prices and I found out that an IDE 250GB cost me exactly the same as a 250GB SATA 300 MB/s, I'm mostly looking for information and/or orientation about whats best for my current PC configuration.
Abit IC7-MAX3 (supports Serial ATA)
Pentium4 @ 3.2Ghz
4 Kingston 512 MB sticks
2 Western Digital 80GB IDE HD
My question is, would a 250GB SATA HD work with my current 80GB IDE HD, I dont plan on using a RAID setup or anything, I would like to install Windows Vista in the SATA hd and have it as main and use the IDE hd as secondary disk to keep some of my backup files.
What do you recommend me to do? should I buy the SATA or the IDE 250GB hd?
