Hard Drive Types.

Hi i'm looking to buy a new hard drive as mine blew last week, never bought one before and just after some info on the types as i dont want to buy the wrong one.

• IDE Hard Drives
• SCSI Hard Drives
• Serial ATA Hard Drives

Any help which one i should buy and info on the difference between them would be great.

So a 250Gb Maxtor DiamondMax SATA II for £52 would be a good deal ?

And thanks for the info.

I think my old one was a Seagate, not sure about the SATA connections though, i'll have a look when i get home.

Any pointers on what i should be looking for, i imagine it will say on my old HD, should i buy the same as what it says on there to be on the safe side ?
