How to find suitable replacement hard drive for HP Pavilion DV6000?
Recently, I have encountered hard drive failure and need to replace my hard drive, although I am not sure how to find a hard drive compatible with my DV6000.
How am I supposed to find a compatible hard drive?
Thanks in advance.
Take it out of your laptop and check the connections, either its IDE (old type) or SATA which is the new type.
Laptop hard drives are 2.5", whereas desktop computer drives are 3.5".
For a laptop then 5400rpm is a good choice instead of 7200rpm.
You don't say what size your current hard drive is but if your going to buy one with more GB then make sure you get one that suits your needs as the drives with a very big capacity are a little bit thicker (due to the extra platters) and might not fit into your computer.
The best hard drive manufacturer is Western Digital (sometimes known as WD). They are reasonably priced and very reliable.
Amazon, Misco or Play.com are good places to buy them.
