Ok,
I have three hard drives, and space for one more. I thought about emptying one of the existing drives, and reformatting; but hard drive prices appear cheap enough, so maybe I'll just get another one?
I have Vista Ultimate, but have never installed it. But when I received the BFG 8800 GT OC 512 this past Monday, I am considering adding Vista, because of DX 10. My previous card was not DX 10 capable.
So.......a couple of questions.
First: If I go the route of adding another hard drive, are there any restrictions I need to think about? My present drives are:
One:
Western Digital Caviar SE WD800JB 80GB 7200 RPM 8MB Cache IDE Ultra ATA100 Hard Drive - OEM
and
Two:
Western Digital Raptor WD740GD 74GB 10000 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 1.5Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM
And Secondly, what place has the cheapest, but best for the price hard drives? I originally bought my components from Newegg.
Thanks.
