1.	Solve : New hard drive on an old (500megahertz)dell comput?
Answer» I have an xps 500 megahertz Dell computer in which the hard drive (c: drive) just died. Can I USE a new hard drive to replace it? Can anybody recommend which one to buy? ThanksSeagate is a very well known brand. I have a Maxtor 80 GB/7200 RPM/8MB cache and must say I am very pleased with it. I also have a SMALLER Seagate (30 GB) which still runs QUITE steadily even though it is +/- 3 years old. I've had very good luck with Western Digital. Limit your size to 120GB or the Dell's BIOS might not see the full size. Check with Dell, you might need a BIOS upgrade, ANYWAY.
