Hi



Do a 160 gig (a WD1600jb from Western Digital) would work with my PIII



667 mhz ?

I think to buy a WD1600jb hard drives.



And, what is the difference between a Celeron and a Pentium processor (Celeron processor seem not very popular) ?



Thank



Gaetan

Given the age of this CPU, it is unlikely that a supporting motherboard will be able to recognize 160 GB harddisks. Identify your motherboard and try to locate the most recent BIOS upgrade.

Celeron is a low cost edition. It is around 50 till 60% of the full price and delivering some 20% less performance.

Kind regards, Gerard Bok

The mad thing is with this, is I had a PIII 533 and a celeron 500mhz (I think) the PIII took 2 hours to render a image, and the celeron did it in

20mins! motherboards come into it a fair bit, but still shocked me!
