due to me being a mong head when i built my new internet pc i ordered a sata drive rather than a ide drive so i have one sitting here

80gb western digital wd800aajs

never used (as windows wont install on a sata drive unless its in a really really good mood)

cost new = £25

ill sell it for £20

it is unboxed but in perfect condition bargain for anyone who just wants a bit more storage on thier pc or a 2nd drive for music production or photoshop

email me on djvapour@gmail.com or hit me up if you have my number or aim

Since when can you not install windows on sata drives? Arent IDE's slower than SATA's anyway?

I have Western Digital Caviar SE WD2500JD 250GB 7200 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 1.5Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM  with windows xp, unless im just reading your post wrong heh

yeah i only use SATA's as i got CDs an DVDs on all my IDE inputs
SATA is the way forwards for your hard drve connections though (unless you want to rinse the RAID array - although you can only do that with SATA discs) or pay throught the nose for SATA2

I see i got you now. I always overdue on my computers, laptop with 4 gigs of ram, 250gb hard drive that pretty much just sits there. Could spent half the price and still got the same use out of it heh. I'll put it to use someday
