Its my bro's birthday in like a week and I'm looking for a hard drive for a system with the following specs:
AMD 4000
Gigabyte K8NS Ultra Mobo
ATI 850XT
2GB OCZ 2-3-2-5

My friend has a working ExcelStor 80GB ATA100 7200 rpm HD that he'll sell to me for like $20. Is it worth it buying a new WD HD with ATA133 7200rpm? I guess i want to know if the read and seek times will be that much better with a newer one. Thanks.
