Any one help with the above I;m totally confused with ata, udma etc etc
The good news is any EIDE/ATA drive. You do not want a serial ATA drive.
ATA/UDMA is just how fast the data transfers. You can put (if you wanted to) an old 2 gig drive in there and it would work.
My suggestion would be to go for a Seagate Barracuda ATA100 drive.
What is your budget for a drive?
Cheaper the better
Possibly building the pc with a view to selling it on when complete.
Then at least put a halfway decent drive in there...
Seagate,
