I'm just about to pop out and buy a new PC as mine is constantly restarting despite changing drivers, power and loads of other thingys and would like to add my old hard disc drives to the new machine. Are there any machines easier than others for doing this?

Only easier if the case is larger... otherwise pretty standard affair once jumpers have been set correctly and correct cables are used...

Yeah, just if you want it easier to wrok with... also make sure it has adequate connections on the motherboard for IDE or SATA depending on what drives you want to add to it...

You may want to take your hard drives with you to PC World and ask if they would install them for free, cheeky but saves you having to open the box when you get home...

Good luck
