    Howdy,

    I`m having an Asus A7M laptop that needs a HDD replacement. Old drive was 120 Gb sata 5400 rpm.

    Can I buy and put a 500 Gb 7200 rpm drive inside?

    I wanna use whole capacity and rpms of course...


    Thanks a lot!

    Seagate Momentus XT w/SD24 firmware for some good speed without breaking the bank.
