Seagate Hard Drive 320 and 500 Whats the difference?

[browndja]

I am looking in to ordering a Seagate ATA hard drive one of them is 320gb 16mb cache and the other is 500gb 32mb cache. The 500gb is cheaper then the 320, isnt the 500 supposed to be better? I am so confused on the prices. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Well thats the site that I am ordering the computer from. I was just picking the hard drive out that is going in to it, but can't figure out why its less money for the 500gb. I looked at newegg but they dont setup the computer so I will be ordering from the canadian site heh.

The 500GB drive is obviously better. I'm not sure why it's cheaper.
