    The ultra ata is parallel and the other is serial.

    It is just the interface and cable that is the difference.

    The Pavillion will probably use Utra-ATA. Check to see if there is a flat 40-pin ribbon cable connecting the drives. If so -- it is definitely a Parallel ATA (PATA) and get the Ultra ATA-100 drive.
