    Ok, I've decided to step up into a good sized hard drive. I'm looking at either a Maxtor 250 gig or a Seagate 250 gig. They are the exact same price, and I personally perfer the Maxtor, but the Maxtor is ATA-133. Now my motherboard says it supports:

    P ATA - 2 x ATA100 up to 4 Devices
    SATA I - 2
    SATA II - 1
    S ATA RAID - RAID 0/1

    And seems as how I don't know how ATA works, I was wondering if any of those were the ATA-133, or I would have to buy the Seagate, which is ATA-100.

    Thanks a lot,

    ~Elder

    Alright, thanks man. Sounds like it should support it. I'll get the Maxtor.

    Thanks again!
