Could someone explain the difference between these types of DDR Ram? I saw 2100, 2400, 2700, 3000, and 3200. What is different between all of these? Also, I saw a 120GB WD 8MB drive for $189.95. Is that a good price for this drive? Thanks.

The different numbers are different speeds of RAM.

2100 = 200Mhz

2400 = 266Mhz

2700 = 333Mhz

3000 = 366Mhz

3200 = 400Mhz

Right now the highest DDR boards that are out are for the 2700 speed of RAM. The higher stuff is just if you want to o/c and so your board can be more stable up to those speeds.

Hope this helps.

Actually
2100 = 266Mhz (2100 Mbps)
2400 = 300Mhz

Yeah, I guess that would be correct since it's Double Data Rate:confused:
