thanks guys.

I read the article and I currently have the 60GXP 60Gb in this machine and it runs fine.

The IBM 120GXP is cheaper but the price isn't that significant with prices as they are.

I'm going to get the WD SE one now😀

RossMan I'd go with the deals but I live in England and the deals don't apply here🙁

Thats no problem. I export.

I've had 2 IBM Hard drives never had any problems with it, My bro has 2 IBM 60GB in raid and going strong, but when it comes to a western digital with a 8mb buffer gotta go with that.
 
oh yeah... for the fastest one... i believe wd is the winner. don't even think about getting the ibm... too high of a failure rate.
 
I have a Western Digital WD800JB (that's the SE with 8 MB cache). It rocks. Great speed, great benches, much quieter than my old, dead Quantum AS.
