Lately i've been having space diffuclties with my HD (25 GB total), it can't hold all my anime\manga\music needs correctly, and i need to delete and redownload stuff too often, so i decided to get myself a new HD.

I went around today and asked in the computer store, and they said that my computer (pentium 3, 600 MHZ, 196 Ram) can't deal with more than 60GB top... but he said that there might be a chance if i do something about my Bios, or whatever it is...

anyway, my questions are:

A. what the hell is bios, and how do i know which HD could fit my computer under which circumstances?
B. what is buff speed? he said something about 2-8 MB, but i don't know what it means...
C. is there anything important i should know before getting a new Hard disk?
