I got an ebay account if you want to wire the money through me. I understand if you dont trust me though :)
If you do go for either of those you posted, get the first one. The second only has up to U ATA/100
how big a difference is ATA100 to ATA133? would it really matter if i went with a ATA100 as compared to an ATA133?
If you have a drive that is 133 it will be a nice increase in data transfer. ;)
is that ebay card good? i dont wanna buy any peice of crap or something that wont work! check your pms!
not sure wat my new 80gb will be, but im pretty sure its ATA133. being its brand new and stuff!
I am aover 90% sure that ATA/133 is 133MB/s and 100 is 100MB/s. So that is a 33% increase in transfer rate.
This would be the one I would go with. Seller rating is extremly good, looks trustworthy. $20 total
