  • It is absolutly pointless to buy a IDE hard drive. Any new builds should be SATA. The price points are a moot point. You should have also pointed out the memory issue. When you go for memory no matter how much memory the board can support 32 bit windows can only support up to 4 gig with in most system only 3 or slightly more being actually usable. If you want more then 4 gig of ram or all 4 gig of ram usable you need a 64 bit processor AND a 64 Bit Operating system.

see all
