What
type of laptop hard drive do you need?
After you select the type of computer hard drive you are upgrading
from the list below, you will be able to select from various hard drive
Manufacturers as well as different sizes. The type of size hard drive that
you select depends on your own preferences and needs. If you plan on storing
large files, we recommend our larger GB models. These faster RPM models
also improve system performance. If you are unsure what type of hard drive
size is right for your desktop, please click here

What is IDE/ATA?
This drive type used most in consumer grade computers
(commonly called an IDE drive). The ATA standard dates back to 1986 and
is based on a 16-bit parallel interface which has undergone many evolutions
since its introduction to increase the speed and size of the drives that
it can support. The latest standard is ATA-7 which supports data transfer
rates up to 133MB/sec. This is expected to be the last update for the
parallel ATA standard. |
What is Solid State?
Solid State means that there are No Moving
Parts, all of the components are electronic instead of mechanical.
Solid State Hard Drives are based on High performance Flash Memory that
can withstand on an average a Shock of 1000Gs and operate
at temperatures of -20°C to 80°C. Add a High
Data Transfer, Low Power Consumption and Zero
noise levels Solid State Drive makes a perfect replacement for
a conventional mechanized hard drive. |
What is SATA?
Serial ATA is the next -generation internal storage
interconnect, designed to replace parallel ATA technology. Serial ATA is
the proactive evolution of the ATA interface from a parallel bus to a serial
bus architecture. This architecture overcomes the electrical constraints
that are increasing the difficulty of continued speed enhancements for
the classic parallel ATA bus. Serial ATA will be introduced at 150Mbytes/sec,
with a roadmap already planned to 600Mbytes/sec, supporting up to 10 years
of storage evolution based on historical trends. Though Serial ATA will
not be able to directly interface with legacy Ultra ATA hardware, it is
fully compliant with the ATA protocol and thus is software compatible. Users
of the Serial ATA interface benefit from greater speed, simpler upgradeable
storage devices and easier configuration.
*SATA Hard Drives are compatible only with SATA enabled
systems. |
