Hard drive/hard disk sama sama. Basically the physical storage space on the computer. The disk you are talking about is called a floppy disk (even though its physically hard)... in the "old days" a floppy disk really was floppy which is where it gets its name :P The motherboard is the board with the CPU "brain" and things like CD-ROM etc plugged into it.

No the Drive is really 200GB however its the file system of your computer that determines the size within the OS.

A 200GB Drive partitioned under NTFS running Windows will show a different amount compared to your mate with the same drive running a different OS / File system EG: Linux.

Different Manufactures make 200GB drives and they all seem to show different file sizes once you get into windows. It’s the File system + Brand that determines it. Mainly the OS & File system.

or maybe the 512mb 7900GTX....

he has a twin "Raptor X" raid in that 3TB too :((((

LoL So do I dude,

If needed I could fit the 8 x 500GB Seagate drives I just ordered! LoL

Raptor X... mmmm pure pron.

My next project is two iDrives ( RAM Drives ) and then I will attempt RAID on them if they can handle it. :happy:

Im just about 2 upgrade my workstation: Looking at the Dual Core chips.. I sell both AMD and Intel so Im not sure what way 2 go.. both are good these days.

2 x 19" widescreen LCDs should do the job! Mwahahahhahaha..

Got me 2 x 7800GTX cards at the moment so no need for better VGA.

* Changes every week, normaly test out the products we get in.*
