Ok, my T21's HDD is really noisy, so im looking to get it replaced. It 20gb. Does anyone know where i can get a drive of equell size that isn't to expensive?

HDD's are really cheap these days..

check out the usual vendors..
20gig is a bit small and you might consider upgrading a bit..

try ebbay but be careful of the vendor you choose..

that toshiba HDD should work, but not having used a toshiba drive in a thinkpad for years, i can not personally guarantee it will work..

and, if it does work, it will be slow..
but not slower than the one in there now.. :-)
