is this harrdrive worth putting in my pc. i have a 15gb harddrive and a little over half of it is being used. i use the pc for ebay, web surfing email, picture and video storage, and a small amount of guitar recording.i don't know anything about jumpers and slave drives and all that. i haven't had any problems yet and i found this laying around. i don't really want to go out a buy a bigger harddrive because i do alot of stuff on another computer.'
this computer is older with max memory of 512mb. its a pent 111. 733mhz, file system is ntfs. capacity 13.98gb, free space 6.53 gb.
 
jeeze do you know anything about computers?

600mb might only get an operating system installed.
 
my xp takes 2 gigs! ya u might be able to install 98 or something. u can buy a cheap 40 gig for 25 bucks now tho
 
my system specs are:
OS: windows xp home edition sp2
Motherboard: Msi K8N Neo4
Processor: Amd Athlon 64 3500+ 2.2GHz
Video Card: xfx geforce 6800 xtreme 256mb
Memory 4 512 Kingston DDR-RAM
HDD: 300gb hard drive + 300gb hard drive
 
i would just bung it in if i were you. it would be more useful in than out. another 600mb can store quite alot of music etc. set the jumpers to 'slave' and attatch it to the IDE cable and a power cable and you are done.
