I am about to build myself a new computer (2.8 Ghz P4). I will use it mostly for web surfing (80%), word processing (10%) and excel (10%). Even tough I do not need a very fast computer, I do not mind spending a few more dollars to have a faster machine.
I understand that some new hard drives use a SATA interface and are faster than IDE drives (I am no technical expert so do not flame me if my technical description is not right). Are they significantly faster? Which one should I get?
I do not need a large main drive. I could use my existing 120GB drive to store my data.
