Hi all,

I have never purchased or installed an internal hard drive. I am planning on buying an internal HD for my sister's g3 tower (the last beige tower), but what exactly should i get? I've seen things like parallel ATA, serial ATA, bare drives vs. retail boxes. What is the difference? The only thing I know is that I don't need SCSI.

Thanks for the help, and sorry if I posted this on the wrong forum, it seemed appropriate :D
