check your laptop can handle a 500, etc.

Posted by: R4N Apr 3 2010, 11:04 AM

your laptop takes a 2.5" sata hard disk

It will handle a 500GB no problem

The speed difference between a modern laptop 5400 vs a modern laptop 7200 is sweet fuck all, so just go with a WD 500GB 5400. I use one in my desktop tongue.gif
