    I have a two year old Sager NP2090 and am finding the 120HDD a bit too snug, I was planning on buying a Western Digital Scorpio Black 320 Gig Hard Drive. I just wanted to make sure if I could do this. Are the inputs the same. The Recovery disk for Vista says that it can only be used on a Midern PC. So will I have to transfer all the old info from current hard drive to the new Hard drive? I can't just pop in the new drive and put the disk in right?

    Yeah, it will work. Same inputs, same size. And if you were to pop the new hard drive in, you could still install Vista from the recovery disk. And of course, if you have any data on the old drive, you can store it on another medium and then transfer it to the new HDD.
