Killswitch606 Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 Hi guys, i really want to replace my dvd writer drive and buy another internal Hard Drive but i have no clue which ones are compatible with my system. My PC is currently a (HP Pavilion t185.uk) and has a Seagate st3160021a ultra DMA 7200rpm internal harddrive) and a the (HP DVD-Writer +R/+RW) that came with it. Im pretty sure the motherboard uses IDE.I would like to buy another compatible internal hardrive with at least 250gb. I have seen this but im not to sure if its compatible: - http://www.ebuyer.com/product/131301 I would also like if possible to buy a new replacement DVD writer that supports DVD±RW/DL and that burns and rips much faster than my current one does. I've seen this one: - http://www.ebuyer.com/product/142275would these be any good? Any help would be fantastic. Im not too clued up on this stuff.Many thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
garmanma Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 The hard drive you referred to is a SATA drive, Not IDE Quote Link to post Share on other sites
