Good online place to buy laptop harddrive?
Sign in to disble this ad
My laptop hard drive crashed and my computer is out of warranty. Where can I buy a good 2.5" SATA laptop harddrive? Cheap is good as well seeing as I am broke.

Is that a decent hard drive? I can use any hard drive in a mac, correct? May sound like a stupid question, but I don't want to be stuck with something that I can't use.

I'd spend the extra on a 7200 RPM drive.

So would that be a better one? It has really good reviews and it is cheap. I am not worried about disk size too much, I keep everything down to what I use/listen to.

Not sure about macs but that is a SATA drive. Make sure you have a SATA and that should be fine. 7200 rpm and a 16mb cache.

There's a 120Gb drive here that's pretty cheap and will fit. I however did a fast search and couldn't find info about shipping to Canada.

None of those are 7200RPM though, at least the mac ones.
