Now my specs are in my comment. My mobo does support SATA HDs. That part is not even a question. The question is is SATA worth it? Here are the two MOBOs which iäve narrowed my search down too.

Which is a wicked deal at 3 bucks per gig.
Same HD

However its 16 MB cache, and SATA
Now installing the IDE HD would be a breeze just stick it in and plug it in. However that SATA would be more difficult because iäd have to buy SATA cables. If anyone has any other suggetions of HDs over 320 GIGs and under 130 bucks you can add those too. However my main debate is over those 2 HDs.
