Hi

Im looking at buying a couple of new harddrives and was wondering if any of u lot could tell me if they are any good or not!

The first is a Maxtor 740X 40GB which i want for a second HD in my machine!

The second is a ExcelStor/Connor 30GB ES3230! this is to go in a machine i gotta build for my mum!

Why im asking could someone just explain the difference between an ata100 cable and an ata133 one?!?! (Altho my m/board only supports ata100 )

Any info much appreciated
