First, is there an available bay in the PC? Next, will the MB BIOS support an 80 gig drive. If "yes" to both, you should be fine in doing it yourself. There is a potential of a power supply issue but 2 drives aren't usually a problem. Go for it and good luck.
I want to add an 80G Western Digital hard drive to my Dell, which has a 20G right now. I don't want to replace the 20G...I'm keeping it. So....I'm running XP, and I don't know what the heck they are talking about with the "bios" thing. Is this going to be beyond my capabilities? The directions seem fairly straightforward, other than that bios thing. Tell me if I'm nuts, and should just pay somebody to do it. I got a great deal on the drive, and was hoping to be self-sufficient, if I could. :-P
Thanks for your help~
