A few months ago my hard drive died on my Dell Dimesion 2400. I am now in need of a new one. However, I know VERY little about hardware. i dont even know what type my hard drive is. the part the plugs go in looks like THIS: Media tagged for size [media]http://img684.imageshack.us/img684/1518/10034801.jpg[/media] I have about $100 i can spend on one (or 2) Hard Drives. can anyone tell me a good one for my budget, and what type of Hard drive my PC uses? Sorry for being "Hard Ware Impaired"
