So my hard drive went off the deep end, using an old P3 now to get back on the forums.

I think the hard drive is still good enough to get everything off it before it completely dies, but I need to get a new one fast.

Here is a list of many hard drives, II bought from this site before so I'm sticking with it.

I was wondering what your guys' and girls opinions on which one of those hard drives would be quite good. I'm semi-good with stuff like this, I just haven't been keeping up on which hard drives are good and which are bad.

I was thinking of the Seagate 320GB 16MB Cache Serial ATA (ST3320620AS), but would a Western Digitial  be better? I was told to stay away from Maxtor if I could...

I found this one on ebay which could be good.

Also, I need a new gig of ram, here's the list of ram.

If it helps, my specs are:

Personally, I run with two medium sized hard-drives with an OS installed on each....that way if one craps out (one has been having problems lately with corruption of the system hive)  I have a back-up already to go.
