I'm buying a new HD tomorrow, my system is a P4, motherboard MSI ms-7058 915P... i have been using a Western Digital WD Caviar 160 GB, Serial Ata HD, but i want a new one now, and use the old as a back up.
I'd like to buy a similar to that one, but since i am going to spend now, maybe there is something better? I am also not an expert (i just plug the things with lots of courage )...
In my mobo there are 4 places to plug S-ATA, i've been reading there is S-ATA 2 Harddisks, would one of those be compatible with my system, and will be a big difference in performance??
so, any suggestions are welcome, anything i should know beforehand?
I would defiantly get another SATA drive (SATA 150 if you can). Never buy budget dives unless you enjoy losing your data. I suggest another western digital or a Maxtor drive. As for capacity that is up 2 you.
Last I take a look at SATA Hard disk (sata hdd) there are lots of upgrade options but I always prefer to take advice from my friends who are in this field for double confirmation of any product, specially when it comes to tech parts and gadgets. Since it is sata hard drive old query, but made me wonder.
