I have a Dell Dimension 8200 with XP SP2
I have been thinking of creating a external hard drive for my system
and I've posted this here before.
Since $$ is a major consideration it was recommended that I get a
Seagate 160GB hard drive, unfortunately they are no longer on sale. I
would appreciate any recommendations for a good dependable hard
drive.
It was also recommended that I get a PCI card to upgrade my system
from USB1 to USB2 to improve the transfer rate:

However I have no idea as far as which type of case to buy.
I think I will use Acronis for the software
Then all I need after that is a USB cord to attach the drive to the
computer. I assume all cords are the same except for the length?
I would appreciate any comments or suggestions.
