my friend has a athlon 1700+xp with 128mb ddr pc2100 ram. but he has a 7200rpm ata 133 maxtor 60gb harddrive.
my system is athlon 2000+xp with 256mb ddr pc 2700 ram. but my harddrive is quite old. its maxtor ata 100 5400rpm 40gb harddrive.
i found that when transfering data from harddrive to harddrive, it seems to lot quicker in my friend's system. is it normal?(as he has a supirior harddrive)
except hdd all other hardwares are better in my system..........so can only hdd make this difference?
is this hdd is a bottleneck for my system? should i upgrade it? does it effect in playing games?
