Sadly I don't think I'm geek enough to upgrade my notebook HD:( I'm afraid I'd get one that isn't compatible. What model laptop do you have? ------------------------------------- Do not do what has already been done.

It's an illusive combination of speed, size, quality, quantity and reliable functionality at a moment's notice.... :omg: _________________________ Asu no koto o ieba, tenjo de nezumi ga warau. Talk about things of tomorrow and the mice in the ceiling laugh. (Japanese Proverb)

*looks around for the reference to chocolate or doughnuts* :confused: now my brain hurts! ;) zen is the art of being at one with the two'ness

[Gary Wheeler]

I was going to make a snide remark that the word should be elusive[^], but then I realized your word choice made an even better pun :-O.

Unfortunately, I haven't heard of too many laptops that included onboard SCSI :((.

I like my drives like I like my chocolate? Hot and in large quantities. hey, that works for chili too. [update: I just realized one for donuts too...

The advantage of having poor spelling, but a poet also.... you are always in doubt if the spelling mistake was a mistake or deliberate. :-O thus the later reference to 500gb 15000rpm drive. ;) _________________________ Asu no koto o ieba, tenjo de nezumi ga warau.

But SATA II offers hope that eventually 15000rpm hard-drives may make the desktop market.... of course their price, limited size, and incredible heat makes them limited in application. But hey, I didn't list price in that list before. ;) _________________________ Asu no koto o ieba, tenjo de nezumi ga warau. Talk about things of tomorrow and the mice in the ceiling laugh.

I rephrase... Happiness is... Having enough money to upgrade your laptop's 60gb 4200rpm HDD to an extremely expensive 100Gb 7200rpm drive. :laugh:

Solid state drives are the future. :) -- Look straight into the light!

The 21.3 inch Samung 213T is pretty near nirvana, especially for $700. Of course now I'm holding out for the 30" Cinema - unless Samsung comes out with something cheaper ;)... Tom Ollar blix: more native than native

Hey C, What drive did you get? I was thinking of upgrading to the same spec as you and was looking at the Hitachi Travelstar 7K100. Regards, Brian Dela :-) Blog^ Co-author of The Outlook Answer Book... Go on, order^ it today!

[Chris Maunder]

I got the Travelstar 100Gb 7200rpm - not sure of the model number but I think there was only 1. It's great. Battery life is (obviously) reduced a little, but nothing painful, and it's a little noiser (in that I can actually hear the drive now, whereas the previous was silent) but I'm very happy. cheers, Chris Maunder
