I picked up a 160gig SATA drive for $59 a couple days ago at Micro Center. Though not the best choice as a boot drive since it only has 2mg cache the 80gig with 8mg cache which is a good choice for a boot drive was the same price.
Cheryl D. Wise Certified Professional Web Developer Microsoft FrontPage MVP http://wiserways.com -----Original Message----- From: Scott Peter, you really should reconsider. The price of storage now is so cheap that you can pick up a 60-80 GB, 7200 RPM, ATA100, buffered (4-8 MB) hard drive for chump change ($40-$50US). You get current technology, reliability, and speed (consider, you do NOT want the drive hosting your OS to be the slowest element of your system), plenty of room for your swap file, and for the inevitable growth of the OS folder as apps add their own embellishments thereto, and more flexibility in how you do your upgrade/transfer. ____ � The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM � ____ To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] or use the web interface http://e-newsletters.internet.com/discussionlists.html/ Send Your Posts To: [email protected] To change subscription settings, add a password or view the web interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/read/?forum=wdvltalk ________________ http://www.wdvl.com _______________________ You are currently subscribed to wdvltalk as: [email protected] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
