Re: Hard Drive question....

I don't see why not. The machine will support it just fine. In fact, this was one of the drive offerings when I bought the machine. <p></p><i></i>

Re: Hard Drive question....

Thanks, Gambino. I just ordered a Western Digital 120Gb 7200RPM drive with an 8Mb buffer. It's pretty much what www.storagereview.com recommended, too. <p><BR><table style='Filter: Shadow(Color=#0000FF,Direction=225)'><tr><td><span class=''usertitle'><img src=http://www.xmenclan.org/avatars/porsche2...

Re: Tech Questinon here

As for the RJ45 hub... I'm not sure, but I don't think you'll find RJ45 on the wireless hub itself. I would suspect that there must be a way to connect a conventional hub to the wireless hub via a crossover cable, though.<br><br>Don't know about the wireless issues, but the point that Asha brings up...

If he's running an NT based O/S (Win2k or XP), I think the 512 would be the better way to go. <p><BR><table style='Filter: Shadow(Color=#0000FF,D...
