I am working on an XPS 1530 , 2 GIG ram running Vista 32bit, When I run embedded diags I see 2000-0142 HD1 self test unsuccessful status 79, user said it is crashing.. So I am sure I need to replace the Hard drive , is this a good choice Amazon.com: WD Scorpio Black 500 GB SATA 7200 RPM 16 MB Cache Bulk/OEM 2.5" Mobile Hard Drive (WD5000BPKT): Electronics ?? (user does not want to spend more than $100 ..)
Note I will install Vista or 7 fresh on whatever drive I end up getting.
Thanks, J
