I haven't replaced an original HD yet. If I wanted to get one of these to replace my HD, does it have software that allows me to copy my entire existing HD onto this new one?........so I can disgard the old one ?

Don't hate me for not knowing.

 

[Whitneymuse]

it does; however, if you're using XP, there may be another method. Right click control panel and go to hard drive setup.

Rally...thanks...I didn't go to the website and look up the number. Just clicked on the flyer and it didn't show the card. Good.

 

[Rally1]

I just tried to install the ATA card and it would boot up but wouldn't get past the screen where it recognizes the pci mass storage controller.
Anybody?

muffstah,

Put your HD to the onboard IDE (removed your old ATA if has one)
Install your ATA133
Boot to XP and install your new ATA driver
Shut windows down
Move your HD to your new ATA and
Enjoy your new HD.

Argh, just went to my local Staples and they wouldnt take the 30 of 150 coupon. Manager was pretty adamant about it. I think I'm gonna go back tomorrow and make more of a fuss about it. They had plenty of the drives though. Stupid ass Staples.

benchiu

did you try that new coupon listed a couple posts above, it's totally legit, no reason for them not to take it?

 

[bcterps]

Hmm, no, I tried a different one. I'll print that out and go to Staples tomorrow and try it. Thanks!

[GermyBoy]

This is so tempting. I just bought 2 of the 120GB drives last night though. MUST RESIST!!!

 

[Viper22]

Well i just ordered one off of Staples.com since the price on there dropped already. Used the $20 off $100 coupon thats around. Total price was $109. Thanks all

I must be an ASSH**E I can't find a "money off coupon"
PLEASE PM ME WITH HELP

 

[cvjraju]

check the following thread in FW(thanks to MysticMan1) for the coupon

[RU482]

Question... Can anyone who bought this drive at staples PM me the UPC number? I want to get the drive with the ATA133 card (got mine from OD, no card)

 

[beaver]

A right way to make the deal:
Add
#471112, $20 with $20 MIR inside box.
#471535, drive itself.
and some clips, ACC72380 to over $150
then $30 off$150 coupon.

Bingo. You get it $99.99 free shipping.

Happy shopping

 

[azdevil]

Just ordered it!

Couple of queries though.

Can the pci card support 2 133 drives, via a two plug ide cable??

I got a mxtor 40gig a while back and would like to double up and raid if possible.

Maxtor link, doesnt say much.


Thanks for the help.
