Glad you are finding adequate help. Sorry that much of my information was redundant. I neglected to read the other responses.
I just wanted to add that I am a big advocate of retail hard drives unless I really <b>know</b> the vendor will honor his own warranties. Just had too many hard drives fail over the years, some after a few months and some after a couple of years.
I personally, like Fujitsu drives because Fujitsu was the first to offer 5 year warranties. I've since decided that 3 year warranties are good enough because I'm likely to replace a hard drive well before 3 years have passed. Still, warranties are security blankets.
I failed to mention that I too like MAG monitors. I own an old DX-15T, great little monitor but it's time for something bigger. My eyes will thank me. I'd like to go with a flat panel display for browsing and a CRT for games but the flat panels are still too expensive.
