Ok i have a 100$ store credit at best buy, the Maxtor 8mb cache 80gb came for 99$ after rebates and WD 60gb (2 mb buffer) came for 59$ after rebates...
now i dont need the extra capacity, but does the speed difference warrant the extra money? I heard the WD's had higher access times? now thats important to me, i dont mind waiting two seconds longer on an install, but when i click something i want it to fly accross the screen lol...so tell me is the maxtor that much faster?
and anything else you might suggest that is worthwhile for 40$ at BB if i get the WD? i wanted new speakers but all the ones that were better than 2.1 are more than that ....
