Heyyo,

Ok, sorry if the thread title makes me look like a retard. xP
Anyways, I was window shopping in Best Buy, and ran across the Hardrives/Routers section. I knew I only had 1.5 Gig left in my old 40 Gig HD...so I knew I had to buy a new, fresh, many-gigs hardrive, very soon. Well, I saw a 320 Gig Seagate one for 99.99. I am already craving it. So the question is: is it a good deal? And/Or, is it a good hardrive? If I get good confirmations, I should start saving up a hundred dollars, so I can enjoy downloading and recording, without a pinch of slow-downs or fear of losing space. ;D
I got 2 of those from the FutureShop (BestBuy owns FutureShop, so same deal really), and those harddrives are solid for me. I use one in my main tower for Vista and all my files, and the other in my room's comp for media and such. They worked fine for me. I would not suggest tossing the 40GB, but to strap on the 320GB SATA HDD as another HDD, and use the 40GB one for Windows/Linux/etc, and the 320GB HDD for files. That way your OS won't tie up space on it. =D
The Seagate 320GB SATA HDD also has a 16MB Cache on it, so it loads stuff quite nicely. ;)
