Lap Top Hard Drive

[spyke]

Hi folks
I need to replace the hard drive in my lap top
to something a bit bigger(6.4 at the mo)
2 quetions,
1....how do I get to it?
2...will any 2.5 inch hard drives fit ? I was hoping for something around 20 gig.
The machine is a Packard Bell easy one about 18 months old

1. There will be an easily accessible hatch/slide tray about 2.5 inches wide somwhere on the underside. Occasionally it's accessible by removing the keyboard (usually a couple of spring loaded clips)

2. Just about every modern drive is the 9mm height 2.5 inch type (older ones were 15mm) and you should be able to fit a 20Gb one, larger on a BIOS upgrade.
