digital video editing on computer: will this hard drive do the job?

I used to do a lot of editing a few years back on an internal ATA66, so I'd imagine ATA133 would be more than up to task. RPMs are really more important, and as long as you're at 7200 or more, you're fine.

What's the best video editing software for the PC? I've used Nero Vision Express to make a 2 hr DVD of music videos, and I'm happy with that but I need to change some of the individual music videos (cutting out opening scenes, and sticking my own logo over the MTV and VH1 ones on there) - I have a 200gb HD, AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3200+, 2.01 ghz, 1.00 gb of Ram.

Is it easy to do and how long will it take to stick a logo on each minute video? Thanks.

I've made a few lyrics videos using Windows Movie Maker - all static images and captions. Now I'm thinking of doing a video with moving pictures, wondering if anyone can recommend an even better (and still easy to use) free video editor?

Okay, I'm willing to pay for a decent video editor - any recommendations? I tried Adobe Premiere, seemed fairly intuitive (certainly not looking for anything more complex/advanced) but not into the subscription model - could I buy an older version and use that? Anyone recommend a decent pay ~100$ once alternative?

Google has not been helpful.

I've found Reaper to be a great audio editor / DAW, very reasonably priced, easy to run on a not too powerful machine. So anything like Reaper but for video would be cool...
