Fujitsu HDD upgrade

I am planning on a HDD upgrade. I currently have an 80 GB 4200 RPM runnin' on my laptop. I want to buy a 60 GB 7200 RPM HDD.

Any suggestions what to get?
Any links you can provide would be appreciated.

And another big question, how easy is it to install?
Can anyone provide step by step instructions?

Thanks a bunch!

 

Hitachi is only one who makes the 7200RPM hard drives at the moment. You can find one here:

They are one of the best upgrades you can make in a laptop. I have one in my T41. It is like my desktop. How hard or easy it is to install depends on your notebook. Generally, you remove a couple of screws. Slide the hard drive out. Swap the drives from the caddy. Put it back in and re-install the operating system. Without knowing your model it is hard to say. There are some models where you have take the shell off the notebook. If you have one of these, I would consult with your laptop maker in regards to whether or not taking off the case voids the warranty. You can take the old one and put in an external USB case for extra storage or a backup solution. Or you can sell it on ebay. I got $70 for my 40Gb, although that was six months ago. Good Luck.
