   I have a Performa 5200, and the Internal HD has recently given signs
that it will soon fail.  I want to switch it with a cheap HD, but I don't
know anything about HD's.  What is the difference between the IDE/AT, and
the EIDE drives?  Will they both work in my machine?

   More specifically, will either if these work in my machine as a
replacement to my current <800MB> pittiful HD:
      �  Maxtor K0685120A(IDE/AT, 5.1GB, 3.5in)?
      �  Maxtor K0183500A(EIDE, 3.5GB, 3.5in)?

   If anyone has used one of these drives sucessfully, or has another
suggestion, I would appreciate it.  Thanks.
