Stooney Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Yep. You'd probably be looking for a 2.5" PATA notebook hard drive, such as this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136129 Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/240135-hdd/#findComment-1233520 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stooney Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Well in that case you're best off buying a ThinkPad brand hard drive. If it were me, I would rather invest in a newer laptop rather than let the old one start to nickle and dime me.
