The size of the hard drive is up to you… I wouldn’t go less than 40Gig. I would recommend finding a drive that has an 8mb cache (the alternative is a 2mb cache) and is 7,200 RPM’s. Make sure that it is ATA/100 or ATA/133. (ATA/133 is faster).

 

Good luck and feel free to ask me any more questions.

My desktop computer that I was going to put debian all of the sudden isn't working and now I need a new hard drive.  I was just going to buy a used one...off of ebay or at a store..but I need help because I don't know what I'm looking for.  I would appreciate any help I can get!

Thanks!

Ashley
