Hi Noel,All depends on what you want from your computers HDD's performance potential. Personally I like my XP Pro to perform like a Ferrari, feel like a Maybach and respond like an F18. And to achieve all three of those exquisite pleasures, I invested in the all new PerfectDisk 2008 from Raxco.My awesome XP Pro didn't come free, so I have no problem with paying good money to have a superb program, like PerfectDisk 8,keeping it like it was when I first installed it........ FAST, BEAUTIFUL and STUNNING.The after sales service and support from the Raxco team is also, second to none in this field of applications.
