currently my desktop using an old 20gb IDE harddisk.. seems too small to store stuff so i'm thinking of getting a bigger one during pc fair this weekend.. my ultra-simple question is do i get IDE or SATA drive? my mobo does support SATA..
not sure if there's much difference between the two types of harddisk..
well technically sata transfer speed is faster, but then normal human reaction can't really notice it, it's too fast for us to catch, unless u do stress tests.
also, sata hdd is 1 to 1, unlike ide hdd where u need to set master and slave
