Will a hard drive with a interface listed as: IDE Ultra ATA-6, work in a computer that had a hard drive listed as: IDE Ultra ATA-4? The computer is a notebook, HP pavilion N5195. I'm not sure if these two numbers(i.e ATA-6 and ATA-4) are compatiable. Thanks for any insight.

Thanks

Hey,
I've posted another post before, but no answers. Can a hard drive fail (create bad sectors, physcal damage, etc) from having a bad RAM module? If so, how do you check it?
Thank you for any ideas.
