[quote="Old Reliable":f2367]Heh, thanks for the advice, time for a new HD...too bad Western Digital dos not make one below 20 gigs. also how important is compatability of HD with processor and mobo and fans and all that jazz?[/quote:f2367]

Just with the mobo. If the mobo has a ATA-66 connector, there's no need to get an ATA-100 drive, although most today are standard.

You should get a WD drive with 7200RPM, and ATA-100, ATA-133 if your mobo supports it.

I'm saving for Asus's new baby, the P4G8X (droooooooool.. . heh)
