aqualung asked:


I am purchasing a new computer (actually a barebones) and would like to keep my hardrives i use now for it.

I know they are both IDE but i am not sure if they will be compatible with this new Motherboard.

The Motherboard says that supports 4 IDE devices and then i goes on to say that it supports these hardrive types :
UDMA/33
UDMA/66
UDMA/100
UDMA/133

I have never heard of those before… If a motherboard says that is supports IDE does that mean all IDE devices?

My hardrives are older but I they are 160Gb and a 75Gb and i do not want to have to buy new ones.

Basically what i am asking is how can i find out if my hardrives are compatible and/or are they compatible???

Please help!!!

Here is the kit i am buying:

dygbus asked:


I want to get a handheld computer, which one should I get?
I basically want it for going online, IM, and the word processor. It has to support Java, and other newer browser options. I want to be able to add a wireless card so I can use it with my wireless internet at home. I would also like it to play mp3’s.

Think about it. Al Gore’s design caused a huge demand for computer. So all the energy needed to make them caused this global warming . By the way, it is 15F in Kansas City tonight.

And i don’t want Linux because its too open sourced for me. Is there a way to download boot camp that supports a computer running windows to have Mac OS 10.3 Panther?
