Hi guys. My cousin's computer that I built for him recently had some problems. So i took a look at it tonight and it turns out the Samsung HDD in it had bad sectors all over it when i ran the Samsung diagnostic tool. I want to add a sata hdd to the system since it's basically the standard these days so would it be possible to just buy a SATA PCI card for the mobo and plug the new sata hdd onto that to install windows? If so, would I need any special drivers while installing XP similar to RAID or something? Or Will the windows XP setup disk most likely recognize and see the drive to make the installation even easier for me? Thanks!
