I'm looking to buy a 160gb+ hard drive in the next couple of days, to
replace my (don't laugh!) 20gb Maxtor drive which I've had for far too many
years now! My m/b can support up to ATA133.
What manufacturer would you experts advise me to go for, or is there nothing
much between them these days? I was considering Seagate. Is there really
much real-world difference in speed between a 7200 or 7800 rpm drive?
