#1 Post by pcgolfer85 » Fri Apr 11, 2008 12:03 pm

I was just wondering if the T42 uses a regular sized IDE laptop hard drive. Thanks in advance!

Yes. Please note that several years ago, laptop hard drives changed from 12mm thick to 9.5 mm. The thick ones won't fit.

Also be sure to get PATA not SATA.
