1. what is a good hard drive to get? also, i'm very into games and am wondering how much of a difference a faster RPM would make and the cache size. does it only need to worry about the RPM while loading or can that affect game perfomence, same thing to cache size.

2. what is the easiest way to move all my stuff to the new hard drive. got only one right now, and 40GB something or other that came with the comp. i just want to move everything on to the new one. can i do that? what with system information and all.

Answer me these questions 3:

1. Price range?

2. How much space?

3. Any particular brand preference?

well assuming your looking for a desktop HD since this is in the desktop forum you mught want to check out the samsung 160gig hard drive. I'm happy w/mine so far. Can't beat the price at $.65 per gig!
