ifixit has good guides for this type of thing:You should open your laptop, take out the drive, and take it to a shop to make sure you get a replacement that uses exactly the right connector and where the bolt holes match up. Many of these things are proprietary so you need to get the exact right kit.Also, invest in a good screwdriver set for this - a cheap one will make your life miserable.--Kili.io - OpenStack for Africa: kili.ioMusings: twitter.com/varudAbout Adam: www.linkedin.com/in/adamcnelson

It has been failing the S.M.A.R.T test with a reallocated sector count of 2047 that has remained there since the problem started.I am tired of this and the work arounds needed to upgrade the OS and the incessant warnings to back everything up right now. Are there any things I need to know before I take the plunge and which brand of Harddisk would give me good service? Or I just buy any and go with it?
