I'm looking to buy some inexpensive SATA II 2.5" laptop hard drives. I want at least 80gb, 7200 rpm.
I'm also looking for a replacement LCD panel for my 14.1" Z61t. Must be WXGA+ and in good condition (bright etc.)

One thing to bear in mind:
If the current panel is 14.1 at 1280x800, you're good to go with WXGA+
However, if it's 14.0 at 1280x768, the panel swap is not possible.
Happy hunting.

Is it just a bezel issue? Could i simply put a bigger bezel or will the panel itself not fit?

The panel will NOT fit.

I don't know how cheap you want - but I've been buying perfectly good refurbished drives from
here for under $40.
