I am trying to replace my 100 GB hard drive with a 500 GB one on my Thinkpad T61.
Will "Western Digital Scorpio Black WD5000BEKT 500GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache 2.5" SATA 3.0Gb/s" be a good/compatible replacement?
It is available for $75 on newegg.

Thanks for your help.

Yes, the Western Digital disks have a good reputation. Actually, you have a good buy.

They will be compatible with your system, most 9.5mm drives will fit in your T61. The WD Scorpio Blacks are good drives, I don't see any wrong with them as I used them previously on my older T61 (it was the 250GB version instead and that ran fine without problems).

I'd day the Momentus XT would be worth a look.
