It shocks me that although Sata came out in 03 IDE is still going to some extent... it just wont die.. we hardly just burried AGP for PCI-E
Earliest Windows based computer I had had a Pentium MMX 166MHz, 64MB ED0 RAM and like a 1GB IDE HDD. :wacko:
I was too young to play around with the insides of that, but I don't think it had SCSI.
SATA uses much smaller cables and takes up less space, for that I love it.Quote:

That one may have done as it goes :wacko:Quote:

Man i was in heaven though Pentium MMX 233MHz, 128MB ram 1024x768 16 Bit colour Graphics and like 600MB HDD xD
No CD Rom or nothing just a floppy drive xD
My uncle who works as a java developer and got me started with computers showed me the insides of a very old computer with SCSI and showed the motherboard and the daughterboard. :wacko:Quote:

Why are there so many drives in your computer? :wacko:Quote:

I have 3 or 4 spare DVD-RW drives, all IDE. If I were to buy a new PC I wouldn't put any of them in it. Bit of a waste of time. :wacko:Quote:

I thought not and would probably just buy an adapter rather than getting a new drive, like I said I rarely read or write discs.Quote:

As for the DVD Drives well there all better at a type of thing and i do a fuck ton of burning and other shit
I think I may have to retire this Acer Aspire 5535 laptop much sooner than I thought. I've only had it 2 years in October and it's already overheating all the time, DVD drive is fucked and I think the HDD may or may not be failing. :S
Well Overheating I gave ya a quick tip on, the dvd is an easy switch out and cheap on ebay all you gotta do is pop the front off the old one, as for hdd well that could be to do with the laptop overheating or maybe windows just needs a good reinstallQuote:

Acer's can suck my balls. but word of advice dont get a HP if you get a new laptop or even desktop
they cant design em with thermals in mind for shit, after repairing my HP I modded the shit outta it (as a project its my hobby damnit!) to get it down to acceptable levels xD
My uncle just bought a HP with an AMD dual core and 4GB RAM. :yawn:
