Re: HDD
AFAIK your motherboard will support SATA.
Get a Seagate HDD which should cost around 3600.

Re: HDD
Hitachi is also gud. But seagate is the one which have highest sale due to easy availability nd faster service.
And M2N MX supports SATA II.
And both of em has 5 yrs warranty.

Re: HDD
Yup, that model is perpendicular one. And thanks GOD, u dun get WD.
They have many problems nowadays.
And bout performance all of them performs more or less same which have same specs like rpm,buffer etc. All all models are now ncq supported also.
And seagate HDDs are gud.
