    Hey i have a question about some Laptop HDDs. And i really dont mess around with Notebooks, so im stuck.

    I have a ATA/IDE interface HDD that i am switching out, and i have this PATA one, but i dont know if the PATA will fit in the laptop.


    Here are the two: http://s176.photobucket.com/albums/w168/gomnoto99/HDD/

    you have to take the pin adapter off the old drive & put it on the new drive. both drives are basically identical once that pin adapter is removed.
