replace hardrive for HP 2000-2c29WM?
I was wondering if this will be able to replace my old hard drive in my HP2000-2c29WM laptop? I looked and the hard drive that it is using at the moment is ATA with 500 GB and is running on 5400 RM. I am not a tech person so I'm not sure which hard drive fto buy for my Laptop. I want something that have lots of space and is fast. Any suggestion would be fine. Thanks!!
The trick is the type of drive. This is a SATA drive, so you will need to locate an ATA drive, which best By still sells I'm sure. An ATA drive has the long connector with 2 rows of holes and the middle has a single hole.
A SATA drive has 2 cables that may be joined, but it is a single row of pins and very narrow that plugs into 2 places in the back of the drive.
Hope that helps.
