Wish I had 4 computers.
We are constantly fighting over the 2 we have.

Everyone "needs" their own computer. :roll:

I replaced all the fans too. Nice and quiet with over 400gb total storage available.

It was ultra easy to install. mount, turn on computer load drivers, format, done.

Pmom wouldnt let me spring for a new dual core pc with pci express vid card, she says we dont need 5 pc's at home :roll: .........sheesh :?

not a huge fan of maxtor diamondmax series, just becuase I of the failure rates (keep in mind that the percentage is minimal compared to the number of drives sold tho), but I cant really comment much more on that one. :cry:

anyway sounds good 16MB cache is a huge advantage....I need to spring for SATA 2 or U320....

I only have this one.
One PC with 1 40 gig HDD and I installed a 120 gig for movies and stuff.
A bit more HDD than I need but the drive was only about $50 new, a year ago.

sad thing is, I could use 3-4 PC's at once...

server, music/videos/downloads, a desktop to browse on, and a laptop to take places.

but I only have one.
