Currently i've 80gb 4200 rpms one, I want to buy 120GB with 5400 or 7200 rpms. But i'm not sure if that will be compatible with the laptop. As i'm aware there are some heating issues in laptops with 7200 rpms but still this is almost new model so may be i have a chance!<BR /><BR />Thanks,<BR />Adnan<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 11 Feb 2006 16:18:15 GMT https://community.sony.ba/t5/pcs-accessories/hard-drive-upgrade/m-p/822#M99774 djadnankhan 2006-02-11T16:18:15Z Re: Hard Drive upgrade! https://community.sony.ba/t5/pcs-accessories/hard-drive-upgrade/m-p/823#M99775 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>It is possible, and the Hitatchi range are supposed to run cooler than most 7200RPM drives<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 11 Feb 2006 19:40:21 GMT https://community.sony.ba/t5/pcs-accessories/hard-drive-upgrade/m-p/823#M99775 kee-lo_ 2006-02-11T19:40:21Z Re: Hard Drive upgrade! https://community.sony.ba/t5/pcs-accessories/hard-drive-upgrade/m-p/824#M99776 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I'm interested in doing this too but I'd like to keep my recovery partition. If I put the old 80gb drive in a caddy and use as a USB drive, can I transfer the recovery partition? Does that mean I can still choose the rescue option at boot-up or would I have to transfer the boot sector too?<BR /><BR />Munkie <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":monkey_face:">🐵</span><BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 21 Feb 2006 13:01:09 GMT https://community.sony.ba/t5/pcs-accessories/hard-drive-upgrade/m-p/824#M99776 munkie 2006-02-21T13:01:09Z
