Here's what I'm looking to purchase. I'm hoping for some feedback in case
there are any glaring incompatibilities or omissions that I've overlooked.
Also, I have a few questions toward the end.
M/B: EPOX EP-9NPA+ ULTRA nVIDIA nFORCE4 ULTRA CHIPSET SERIAL ATA300 ATX FORM
FACTOR 1xPCI-E(X16)/3xPCI-E(X1)/3xPCI/4xDDR W/SATA RAID,LAN(Gb),1394A,USB
2.0 & AUDIO (CPU TYPE:AMD ATHLON 64 - SOCKET 939)
CPU: AMD ATHLON 64 3000+ - VENICE, NO EXTRA COOLING FAN
Memory: MWAVE 2GB DDR400 (1GBX2)
CD/DVD: SONY DWQ-120A BLACK 16X SUPER ALL-WRITE DVDRW DRIVE W/SW (White box)
Hard drive: MAXTOR 250GB 7V250F0 STAT300 7200RPM 16MB (Bare drive)
NO DATA CABLE/NO POWER CORD
Video: XFX GEFORCE 6500 128MB PCI EXPRESS DDR2 TV/DVI (#PVT44FRAMG) (Retail)
I already have a good case. No dedicated sound card for now.
A few questions:
1. Do I need a data cable and/or power cord for the SATA hard drive? Any
other cables?
2. What is the difference in these two drives (besides the price)?:
- MAXTOR 250GB 7V250F0 STAT300 7200RPM 16MB (Bare drive)
- MAXTOR 250GB 6V250F0 STAT300 7200RPM 16MB (Bare drive)
3. I know little about wireless at this point, but can someone recommend a
good, inexpensive wireless network adapter? Verizon will be bringing me a
wireless-G router as part of my fiberoptic installation this week.
Thanks!
