    hi, i have an hp pavilion zt3000. i am planning to upgrade it's hard drive to the highest size it can be supported at todays date. i found that the highest EIDE for notebooks is 250gb made by WD (WD2500BEVE). will it support anything that is EIDE ATA6 regardless the size? will it support that WD2500BEVE 250gb hd? thanks.

    Can you run CPU-Z, and post the chipset details (northbridge & southbridge).

    The Samsung HM160HC ( Review) is an option, considering it is the fastest IDE drive available.
