Excellent Drive for the Lower End PCs
By Santeria
Some versions of this 100 GIG drive have a bonus 20 GIG. At the price advertised, its a very good dollar per GIG ratio. I added this to a DELL Dimension 8100, and it worked superbly.If you get either the standard 100 GIG ATA, or the one with the bonus 20, if you use the utilities on the CD with the Drive, then you will get the most available space on this drive. The best thing about the CD is that if needed, it will adjust the Registry when required( In the case of most units,PCs-computers, currently sold, anything under 137 GIG is perfectly useable).Your only manual adjustment is the jumper on the rear,and this is fully documented on the booklet with the drive.If you want the 100 GIG as a new C drive, the best way( if you want to retain the image on the Current "C" Drive) is to place the drive in the second bay, boot up, then copy the system across ( either with the free XXCOPY software available on the internet), or use something like DRIVE IMAGE etc; I used XXCOPY, and before changing the drives, I made a full Boot disk so I could copy the system files across.A word about some additional software. Do NOT use Maxtor's DDO ( Dynamic Disk Overlay ) option in the MAXBLAST Software if you have both Partition Magic 7 or 8, as well as Norton Utilities Premier 2006. The probability of an issue with BOOT.INI and the HAL.DLL file is high. The good news is that using PFEDIT and then FDISK/MBR ( and no, thats not a typo... this switch works, and is not officially documented in MS windows TID's, technical info documents), which will change the Partition type from TYPE 44 to the type you need, if necessary, and also FDISK/MBR will rebuild the MBR( Master Boot Record).Like pretty much every MAXTOR I have used,it is extremely easy to install, and your decision is wether to use the ATA, or another variety of Maxtor. Whatever the case, if you need to, there are cards available, if you have a spare PCI slot, that make adding any type of drive, even more easier than could be believed. Whatever size system you have, if you need a Backup drive, MAXTOR has what I consider the best external drives outside of a LACIE. Actually, I love my Lacie External :-). Anything that can survive a move from a 240 Volt Power system to a 110, and theoretically back, as well as surviving LAX ( Los Angeles International Airport) Security,where they do all but Punt your drive through security, is a sturdy device in my view.MAXTOR and LACIE .... What a Team !!!!!!!!!!!!

Yay!
By Tracy
I got so lucky that I bought this hard drive when I did. The drive I was intending this to replace failed and stopped working. It worked and ran great for a long time, was quickly installed and I was back to computing right away. Hoorah for Maxtor!
