Hello,

Pardon my ignorance, but could someone please tell me what kind of a HDD is this:

Picture 1
Picture 2

Is this a 2.5" HDD or a 3.5 HDD, SATA/PATA ????

I need to upgrade my laptop (Compaq Presario M2013AP) from this Seagate 40GB HDD to something higher in capacity, therefore need to know what exactly so search for.

Would a 160GB / 250GB HDD work on this laptop ?

Please help!
Thank you,
CC
 
Emailed HP/Compaq, they responded that 80GB, 4200RPM is the max my laptop can support.

Would buying a 80GB 4200rpm for around 3k be worth it? Or should I go for an external HDD ?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

CC
