    I am getting a Scorpio soon, unless newegg will have it backordered.
    WD is probably the best brand imo.

    For replacing the hard drive its just open the laptop unscrew / pull out the hard drive right? No taking out other components first then going for th ehard drive.

    Just got mine from Newegg a few days ago, Elron. It came quick and it works great. Noticably faster and more responsive. You'll be happy with it for sure!
