hey i got a question, im looking to buy another Hard drive to add to my computer, i have an 80GB sata 133 and its getting full, i need to buy another and im looking to get a larger 160-300(250 would be nice) but i want a 300mb/s transfer rate and 16mb cache, are they worth it to get those? and im wondering how would i go about moving all my files onto the new HD even though i want to keep my 80GB for music and movies and such. thanks, ill try to keep in touch, thanks
Cache isn't that big a deal, 8Mb is what you're shooting for but think about it, the chance of getting a cache hit when you've got 250-300 gigs is so slim size is pretty much not a worry. However I suppose that when it comes to loading recently used programs and files the extra size might show a bit. Either way my vote goes to the Seagate Barracuda series as a general rule but this list will provide you with a nice selection of what you're looking for. Newegg.com - Once You Know, You Newegg
