Here This is mine...

Hard Disk Buffer size - 8MB (Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 9)
DVD RW Buffer size - 2MB (SONY DVD RW DRU-820A)
DVD ROM Buffer size - 512KB (SONY DVD-ROM DDU1622)

You can know about buffer sizes that your drives have using a software like "Everest"...

It's about time you paid a visit to Unity Plaza.
If you are interested, I'm selling my 160GB drive for Rs.6,000 :)
