    you need to buy a "2,5 inches" hard drive. you may also find it as "laptop or notebook hard drive". Just visit your favorite computer store

    there are 3 "speeds" in hard drives.4200,5400,7200.you are hoing to go for the latter 2:
    if you buy a 7200rpm over a 5400rpm disc it will be faster, noisier (?)and eat more battery, ut the differences are really small.

    I d' suggest you go for 500gb.price differnce is not much.

    the following is a 5400rpm,costing $10 more than most 320, and it's the best at the moment, better and faster than many 7200's

    Western Digital Scorpio Blue WD5000BEVT 500GB 5400 RPM


    check this on how to do the replacement..
