Seeing as I’ll be doing all sorts of resource intensive things next year I thought it time I upgrade my desktop. Its not the highest spec computer in the world but its still a good little worker for 4 years old.

It has an 80gig hard drive and 512mb ram with a 3.6Ghz processor. I decided to make a start on upgrading it with a second hard drive. I can’t believe how much they’ve have come down in price since I worked in a PC repair shop. I bought the pictured Hitachi 250GIG and its lovely, so far.

I wanted an 80gig but their surprisingly hard to get hold of, they had one in stock but I wont buy another maxtor until Hell freezes over. (Don’t buy maxtors! I’ve lost one drive, my mates lost two, their bad!) I was going to get a 160gig Hitachi for

Thanks for commenting. :) Yeh, I know comments aren’t everything, but it just annoys me how people sign up to Despair and then don’t bother. :neutral:
Layout wise, I’m working on a new layout - I just can’t find anything that I actually like. I tried a completely different style (http://www.all-mine.me.uk/v7) and although it’s easily readable and everything, I just don’t like it myself. Which doesn’t help. I’m going to start again…again. I’m trying to make it much wider, and clearer, but at the same time not make it boring. So far not working. :(
Meh, A levels…they sound slightly more interesting than GCSEs. No more science. Ever!

Nemo! Mine, Mine. Yes. :blush:

Whatever happened to plain old 40GB HD? I remember when I got mine for my desktop, it was the latest b0mb. Now it seems to be completely obsolete. Especially since it is a Maxtor and you just said that Maxtors aren’t good. I don’t use the desktop anymore though, so it would be my mom losing her data, LOL. Poor her.

Anyway, the upgrade seems amazing, 250GB is a lot and I can’t think of what I could put in it to fill it. My boyfriend however, has a 300GB HD and he was to burn things into DVD’s everyday to make space for new things, because he’s always downloading stuff. But it will sure do you some good having in mind software nowadays is huge. I love that little red ball you made, it was probably simple to do but it looks very nice :D

What a pretty, girly layout you have, Eruanna! I’m also in awe of your 3D rendering skills and your funny blogs are definitely worth a giggle! :bunnyhop:

Yeah, I’ve lost a Maxtor already and then I bought another one and still never seems to work well…It’s on the verge of dying.
