Hi, I know this sort of question probably irritates you folks but I am very soon to be buying a new hard disk and I am not really up on whats hot and whats not. I dont have SATA on my mobo and so will be looking at plain old serial ATA. Probably between 80 to 120 gig, 7200rpm. Money is not an issue really, I am willing to pay for quality. Any recommendations on good performers?
The last drive I bought was an 80G Maxtor DiamondMax 9 Plus with 8mb cache buffer. The damn thing is slower than my old 40gig Seagate with 2mb buffer and it makes sudden click noises often when its booting into windows and seeking files?
Any advice will be very much appreciated
