You received good advice above, but there is one other thing to check before buying a hard drive. The BIOS of older machines may not support as large a hard drive as you wish to buy. It would be worth checking how large a drive your BIOS will support beforehand.
Also, depending on the make of PC/motherboard, a BIOS update may be available that would help in this area. No sense in spending money to buy a 300 or 500 GB hard drive only to find out after the fact that your motherboard won't support it. -- mlsstl ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mlsstl's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9598 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38646 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
