    Hi, I'm new to this forum and had just bought a Sony FZ190 CTO and I have been reading around this forum a lot. I was interested in upgrading the hard drive to one that is 7200rpm, but I'm a noob when it comes to computer hardwares. I was wondering what type of hdd fits my laptop, and also I was wondering how I would go about swapping the harddrive? I've never done it before, so is it easy? I tried looking around on this forum, but didn't seem to find any tutorials, so I was wondering if someone can direct me to a good site or thread where a tutorial is available on swapping the hard drive, thanks!

    It's a SATA drive. I'm not super familiar with Sonys, but usually there is a few screws to take off and swap the drives.
