    I need to replace the onboard hard disk with a new one.

    Which models I could consider in the budget line (This is no more my main notebook) ?

    Can go well a whatever 2.5" at 5400 or 7200 rpm or there are some models that are more well suited for this notebook ?

    thks

    I think any 2.5" 9.5mm SATA drive should work fine. Could also get a small SSD drive.

    I'm thinking to put on 6510B a classic SATA 120/160 Gb and buy an SSD for the Lenovo that I'll get in a few day.

    An OCZ Octane 128 Gb is the candidate, just for now.
