Glad I could be of some assistance. Yea, I've decided that all my HDD purchases now will be Seagate, except for Raptor's which are made by Western Digital.

They are engineered to be more faster and more flexible than IDE. I don't remember all the specifics about what is different and why it is faster, but you can reas more about them here: http://www.serialata.org/index.asp[/quote]
