Just building a second system & wondering which drive to buy. I currently have in my older system IBM drives 25 & 40gb.
My new MB is a KR7A which supports ATA133 so i was thinking of going for Maxtor IDE ATA-133 60GB 7200RPM DiamondMax D740X, But a friend has told me that the 133 wont be any different than the ATA100 on the IBM Deskstar 60GXP 60GB IDE 7200RPM Hard Drive.
Which is better?
Or if i get 40Gb IBM drive i could use the raid feature?
(does that mean that I have 80Gb in total (2 x 40gb) or with stripping is it just 40Gb)?
