    i was thinking of putting a bigger hard drive in the laptop.

    i believe it is the SATA. my questions are, am i limited to any size? and does it matter if i buy an SATA-II or other if mine is only SATA. i dont know the differences between them but the only reason i would buy the 'wrong' one would be based on price, brand and speed. if its backwards compaitble am i only losing some transfer speed. or rather, reverting to the lower spec speed.

    You can use any 2.5" 9.5mm SATA-II laptop drive. Up to 500GB will work, probably larger will also work.
