Please help with Dimension 4600 upgrade
Hello,
I have a 2003 Dimension 4600 APG. With a seagate 80GB HD. I was hoping someone would help choose the right HD for my computer. I've upgraded the RAM to 4GB. Now I want to throw in a fast harddrive. Dell parts upgrade is recommending WD HD 750GB 32MB cach @ 7200RPM cavair black. But this is a SATA drive I believe my seagate is not it is hooked up with a IDE ribbon. The 80GB has a SATA port but is not hooked up that way. I do not have any SATA cables. I worried that if I use another IDE drive that it wont improve performance. Also I would like to keep the Seagate and perhaps set it up as a slave. I dont know I really dont much about doing this.
Please help,
Thank you
Roger
