What hard drive to buy

[kingman99]

Hi

I have to buy a hard drive for my 600E 650m. This will be my third hard drive and second one within 10 months. I blew the last one because l dropped it while it was running and this time when the screen froze l turned the switch off because l was in a hurry.

What was in it was a western 5400 20g

What should l get and l don't need even 20g.

Thanks

Alan

If you are looking for used, start a WTB thread in the marketplace forum here. If you want new 20GB or less, that is going to be harder since most newer laptop drives are 40GB and up. Try EBay and look for a 2.5" 5400 RPM ATA-6 Notebook hard drive. Manufacturer is not important, but I personally prefer Hitachi Travelstars for the old guys. Some are a bit noisy, but they last forever - Here's an example on EBay

Hi

I just missed bidding on that hard drive but the seller has 16 others that you can give him an offer on so that's what l did.

Thanks
