I am a bit of a newbie on this and I was looking at western digital 120gb 8mb drives. I hit my first query then as it has an ATA option or a EIDE option. Any advice? :smileyblush:<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 03 Jul 2004 09:36:35 GMT https://community.sony.no/t5/pcs-accessories/additional-hard-drive-for-my-rx306/m-p/99336#M37889 thomashouston 2004-07-03T09:36:35Z Re: additional hard drive for my rx306 https://community.sony.no/t5/pcs-accessories/additional-hard-drive-for-my-rx306/m-p/99337#M37890 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>EIDE is the system fitted inside the VAIOs, I doubt they have SATA yet, so best sticking with EIDE.<BR /><BR />Make sure you have a space and cable free to connect it.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 03 Jul 2004 13:57:43 GMT https://community.sony.no/t5/pcs-accessories/additional-hard-drive-for-my-rx306/m-p/99337#M37890 kee-lo_ 2004-07-03T13:57:43Z Re: additional hard drive for my rx306 https://community.sony.no/t5/pcs-accessories/additional-hard-drive-for-my-rx306/m-p/99338#M37891 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>hi<BR /><BR />what hard drive is installed at the moment ??????<BR /><BR />my vaio pcv-rs224 has eide devices also had a free space for another drive and yes it has a western digital 120gb 7200rpm 8mb buffer preinstalled <BR /><BR />it would be a good idea to open up your vaio and see what make your installed hard drive is <BR /><BR />make sure you drain the static eletric from your body by touching the outer caseing of your pc for about a min <BR /><BR />regards ben<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 03 Jul 2004 14:55:56 GMT https://community.sony.no/t5/pcs-accessories/additional-hard-drive-for-my-rx306/m-p/99338#M37891 reaper 2004-07-03T14:55:56Z Re: additional hard drive for my rx306 https://community.sony.no/t5/pcs-accessories/additional-hard-drive-for-my-rx306/m-p/99339#M37892 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>thanks for the replies <BR /><BR />I have a Maxtor 4G120J6 [Hard drive] (122.94 GB) fitted that came with it. I think I will make the new 7200 the primary drive as the original disk is 5400rpm I believe.<BR /><BR />Good call on the static. I tend to spark off anything metal I touch so I will earth myself with a wrist cable for an hour before I go near it <img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://community.sony.no/html/@1171BA8DDFC7DB19A6C03A53D2CB08A6/images/smilies/005.png" alt=":laughing:" title=":laughing:" /><BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 03 Jul 2004 15:41:15 GMT https://community.sony.no/t5/pcs-accessories/additional-hard-drive-for-my-rx306/m-p/99339#M37892 thomashouston 2004-07-03T15:41:15Z Re: additional hard drive for my rx306 https://community.sony.no/t5/pcs-accessories/additional-hard-drive-for-my-rx306/m-p/99340#M37893 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I use a radiator myself.<BR /><BR />Most desktop drives are 7200RPM anyway.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 03 Jul 2004 16:12:48 GMT https://community.sony.no/t5/pcs-accessories/additional-hard-drive-for-my-rx306/m-p/99340#M37893 kee-lo_ 2004-07-03T16:12:48Z
