I was looking at mainly the cost per gig for a bigger HD, but if 80gigs will do then go for it. If speed is a factor look at a HD with a bigger cache or the 10,000 rpm drives.

Re: Someone trying to hack me at my university?
Could be. I wouldnt worry to much about it, obviously the firewall blocked it. If it continues from the IP, then I would go to the IT department there. Let them handle it and block the person.
