Newbie Question??

[Sam]

Hi, I'm thinking of adding another hardrive to my PC but not sure what type
to get. Is it EIDE I have to get? (The same plug/socket as my CD-Rom
Drives).

I saw this one on Ebuyer "Seagate ST3120026A 120gb 7200rpm 8mb Cache
Barracuda 7200.7 Plus - OEM" Would this have the same IDE socket as the
CD-Rom Drives?



Thanks for your help

Yes. But how much of it can be seen as one drive, instead of having to be
partitioned into multiple drives, depends upon the computer hardware and the
operating system that you are running. Full information about this drive is
available from the manufacture at:
