    Hello,



    My laptop is HP DV6 3050so, and my hard disk is going to die.

    Current hard drive is HM500JJ made by Samsung. I looked that drive from my stores (Finland) but I didn't find same drive.

    What I found was technical details as same as HM500JJ or even better.

    So I would like to ask if that match on my laptop?

    Hope someone can help me on this
    Regards Mika Marjomaa

    I don't understand the problem, any 2.5 sata drive should do.
