Hello!
My brother's old as the hills 4200 rpm 2.5 40gb just died in his Compaq V200.
Looking to replace it for him with a clean install. I would Prefer a 5400 RPM to improve performance, anything 40gb or greater in size!
I can pay with paypal and have heatware under Gjohnst4 and 100% Ebay feedback as Gjohnst4 as well.

Thanks!

I think I have some spare drives, not sure of the size or speed. I'll dig around and see what I can find :cool:

Its probably a PATA drive if it is really old. Make sure you get the right interface drive.

Yep; PATA is what I need. IDE is in my title, but I guess I should have repeated that in my request
