i wanted to noe :
if there is any way to use the Samsung hardrive to boost my speed (ram)?

Your rig probably should be pentium 3 with 128MB Ram

Yes, you can run & install linux - but I doubt if linux will run well for multimedia with only 128 MB Sd or ddr ram.
I'll suggest you to invest you in a complete new rig & use your old rig as download box.
No there is no way you can use your HDD to boost your system speed in place of Ram.
