    Hi

    Does anyone know if there is a hard drive FAQ? I've searched baout, but cant find definative answers to a few questions i have. I'd be greatful if anyone could answer them.

    1. Is it important to use a 5400rpm HD when upgrading? I have fitted a 7200rpm with 8mb cache, but was told that this wouldnt be as good as a 5400rpm. have i been told right, and if so why?

    2. Is there a limit to the max size drive? I know about the BIOS and OS limitations, but assuming that the BIOS is set to support F and G drives, should you limit the drive going in? Again, why? Do they have heating problems?

    Thats all i need to ask for now, i would be really greatful if anyone could give me some good answers. If there is a FAQ which answers thes already, sorry but i couldn't find it. I'd be glad to put one together but would need a bit of help probably.

    Thanks in advance for your help

    Guy
