I've got an Abit NF7-S rev 2.0 motherboard. Now I'm going to buy a Western Digital Caviar XL 80Gb 7200rpm 8Mb cache UDMA100 IDE but the people in the computer store told me that the Western Digital harddrives doesn't work satisfactory with motherboards that has the nForce2 chipset. They told me that the problems occur on many different firmware versions, so it's impossible to say exactly which one to buy or not to buy. The best thing is not to buy a WD at all if you have a motherboard with the nForce2 chipset. Can this really be true??

That's BS. I've got them running together right now on the machine I'm posting with.

Honey, what's that smell? Don't bother me now I'm working on my computer! OOPS!

You posted this somewhere else too.

It's complete BS and you shouldn't shop at that store. Get your parts online. <A HREF="http://www.newegg.com" target="_new">http://www.newegg.com</A>
