Hard drive question?

i just bought a new hard drive:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16822144701

the plug in the back is different...

i was told by someone at bestbuy i needed an IDE hard drive...

what is the difference between these two hard drives? will either work?
I have a pent4, 1.3GHZ, 640MB RAM...

I can see there is a difference in the amount of disk space. but what is the difference between:

IDE Ultra ATA100 Hard Drive - OEM and IDE Ultra ATA133 Hard Drive- OEM

I was leaning towards the seagate. are they both good brands? If there is something else you think would work please feel free to share. I dont need a huge Hard drive. 150 to 200 will do. the 320 is a good price....

thanks

You better get the sata hard drive couse the speed of transfering data is faster but it all depends of the motherboard you have and the power supply also !

 

quote: can get a pci sata controller card for the 1st hd. sata drives are taking over from regular ide(pata) drives.

I dont know what you mean by this.... is this something i need to do to the motherboard? or to the hard drive? I have not sent back the:

should I? If i do any suggestions to what hard drive to get? I reformatted the hard drive i thought crashed and am using it now.... if i get the hard drive you are talking about will i still be able to use my old hard drive?
