    Can anyone instruct me or provide a link that says how to change the HDD on the 3201xci?

    I'd really hate to do it wrong.

    Thanks!

    Blueman,
    Where on or in your computer did you find the rpm stated. I just got my 3201 and can't find it. I'm hopeless. Thanks, Jim.

    control panel / system / device manager should give you a product code for your HDD, (my desktop says Maxtor 6Y120P0 for example) punching that into google should give you your drives specifications

    Same question here, just bought a 60GB 7200rpm HD, which should be arriving soon. I know how to do it, but since the connecting cable looks very fragile, i was wondering if anyone have any tricks in unplugging the connection cable.

    Blueman - if no one answers i will just go ahead and go with what i have, i will post pic/instructions then if u still need it.
