Types of DDR Ram
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
