Compatibility Issues

[KingNothing36]

Can someone help me with a question coming from a very inexperienced person? I just want someone to tell me whether or not this HD: http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProductDesc.asp?description=22-144-118&catalog=23&manufactory=BROWSE will work with this mobo: http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProductDesc.asp?description=13-138-227&catalog=23&manufactory=BROWSE

Thanks for any help...please explain why it is or isn't, if you can.

There are absolutely no circumstances that could move me to purchase a BIOSTAR motherboard. Need cheap? Get it from EPOX. Newegg has <A HREF="http://www.newegg.com/app/viewproduct.asp?description=13-127-166&DEPA=0" target="_new">this</A> on sale through tomorrow. Buy it!

That drive will work with any motherboard. The larger cache is better. Just don't end up like this guy:

<font color=red>I knew I was going to have problems when I started the computer and it would not POST. BIOS was blank, had to clear CMOS, got it working. No matter what I tried I could not get the front speaker output to work. This was my first Nvidia chipset and defenitely my last, very unstable, problem with drivers and did I mention I couldn't load the drivers on Win98. The least it would run is windows98SE. Requested an RMA for refund, and ordered Gigabyte GA-7VT600 1394. I have no doubt that QC will be twice as good and support top notch not to mention stable VIA chipset. Thanks Newegg for great service.<font color=black>

I really wish I could, but I'm on a really tight budget, and the only way anyone has founda way for my mahcine to improve has been to spend more money.

Edit: Well, you guys know a lot more than me, so I'm gonna go with the mobo that's on sale for now. The problem is, I won't be able to even buy this stuff for a while, because it's taken the bank more than a freaking week to raise my credit card limit. They estimated 2 or 3 days. Grr!
