Hey there, I've been having memory issues related to the partitioned hard drive that came with my comp. It has 120gigs but only allots 13 ish to the C drive portion and with all of the programs and media type software I have to use, it keeps filling up the C drive even if I install them to the D drive. I'm looking to buy a new HD but I'm not sure about compatibility and such. Is there a chart I can refer to in order to determine what would be best suited for my comp? It's a Viao PCV-RS 420 with hyperthread, and a Pent 4 2.8Ghz processor. If there is any advice anyone could offer it would be most appreciated, thanks.

You need an Parallel ATA hard drive

PATA HDDs on Newegg

I would suggest these:
WD 5000AAKB - $80
WD 3200AAKB - $65
Seagate 500GB 7200.10 - $80
Seagate 750GB 7200.10 - $120
