Hello:

1.  I am looking for a driver for Barracuda 320GB hard drive (ST3320820AS).
Can you help.

2. I purchased New HP PC with pre-loaded Vista.  I would like to have dual
boot.  I followed some instructions that allow to re-partition hard drive and
create a partition for dual disk.  My NT installation does not support SATA. 
I need to install SATA driver.

Your help would be appreciated.

The driver you're looking for is for the drive controller not the disk
itself.
