Same drive, but 60GB is only $82 + $2 s/h.

What size is your current drive?
It's not me, it's someone else.

I think the current one is a 30. It's several years old.

Ok, the drive is out. It's a Toshiba HDD2169, which I believe is ATA-5 compliant.

Looks like a lot of drives nowadays are ATA-6. Do I need to worry about that? Or will the drive be backward compatible with the controller in my laptop?
