Hey I am looking to upgrade my computer by purchasing a new CPU and Motherboard, but I am wondering if I will have conflicts with my current hardware.
Right now I run a Dell 8200:
Intel 1.7gHz
512mb RDRAM
Unknown Motherboard
Dell 40Gb OS drive ATA100
Seagate 80Gb drive ATA100
I seek to purchase a new AMD 64 3000+ Newcastle chip and motherboard. I am aware that I will have to replace the RDRAM with DDR but I am unsure of whether or not a motherboard with ATA133 will support my hard drives. I don't care if they preform at the 100 level instead of 133, I am just wondering if I would have to buy a new hard drive as well. Does anyone know if it will support 100?
