Just to compare, Newegg.com has Seagate 400GB ATA drives (OEM, which
means bare bones) for $200. So that is a good deal at Outpost.com.
Weird, I'd never heard E/IDE referred to as PATA. I had to look it
up. <LOL> I see that Seagate is starting to refer to the IDE drives
that way on their website, too. I guess they are trying to make sure
people understand that it's not a SATA drive, but in my mind, at this
point it is only more confusing. They've always been IDE drives and
they should keep it that way until they die out. IMHO. WD, by
contrast, still calls them EIDE drives on their website.
Did I go off track or what? <grin>
