[Simply Computers] updating hard drive issues

 

ImHotep,

I have an IDE drive inside my Hewlett Packard Media Center PC 800 which no
longer boots.

I bought a new 2TB Western Digital Green. I have been informed that in
order for the new drive to talk to my old PC with Vista 32bit SP2, I need to
buy a IDE TO SATA PCI CARD.

I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT IF I WANT TO retrieve the data from the old IDE drive I
will need to purchase something called a 33in USB 2.0 to IDE or Serial ATA
Drive Adapter Cable.

Can you refer me to companies that sell high quality products like the two
named above?

Thank you very much.

Amen-Ra
