Be interested to know your experience with the Seagate drives. My real job involves supporting about 400 PC's, and the Seagate's are definitely not as long lasting as the WD's.
By the time I ordered they were sold out. However, a buddy of mine purchased one recently and had to return the drive twice. I returned the 200gb maxtors and purchased two 250 gig drives for 30 bucks less. I have all the parts I need for the dual core system (I purchased the , but I want to make another system.

On the first page this is listed:

The Original Under $600.00 System (Digi Approved)

Enermax CS-3051L-B3A (Black)Aluminum Case with 350W PSU 55.00

Asus A7V600 Motherboard 59.99

AMD XP2500+ Barton FSB333 (Heatsink/Fan Included) 75.00

Micron 512 MB PC3200 DDR SDRAM 70.00

ATI Radeon 9600 128Mb DDR 8x Dual Video Card 71.00

Western Digital 80GB SATA 7200RPM 8MB CACHE Hard Drive = 45.00

Lite On 52x32x52x Black Color CDRW Drive LTR-52327S 38.00

Total= $358.99


I cannot find that motherboard on newegg or pricewatch. So now I am back to a similar question I asked earlier. Should I go with socket 754 or 939 mobo? I do not want to run dual core on the second computer. This pc will not run pro tools 7.0, but I will install 6.1 or 6.7 on the machine.

Any other help is appreciate, thanks!!!
