I would like to add a hard drive to my computer, but I have never done this before, so I'll need a bit of help.
My current hard drive is a Western Digital 160 GB SATA
(WD1600YD 160GB CAVIAR RE SATA RAID 8.9MS 16MB 7200RPM, discontinued)
I would like to add another internal drive for storage, since I already have an external (nice for data transfer between my home/ college computer, but not that convenient when I want to access stuff on it).
I just want a good 250/320 GB slave drive. The old 160 GB would be the master. Would this drive work for me? Or should I be looking for something else for compatibility?
Newegg.com - Western Digital Caviar SE WD3200AAJS 320GB 7200 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM
I've never purchased an oem drive from newegg, but I assume that it wont come with any power connectors or anything to connect the two drives... So what other things will I need to set this up?
any other general issues with the setup?
