    I have an Aspire 1690i laptop and think that my hard drive has packed up. If it has, what type of hard drive do I need to get to replace it? I know it's a 2.5'' one but is thr anything else I should ensure it is? Also, how do you remove the drive. I have removed the cover but there is only one screw underneath that doesn't seem to release the HD. Also a plastic tab stuck to the HD. Thanks for any help!
