This is what I could find regarding Specs for your PC:  http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-c02779493

 

The drive interface is SATA III, so any modern SATA drive of 1TB or smaller would work, and for maximum performance, I would suggest looking for a 7200rpm drive -- although they will cost a bit more.


Good Luck

@Bobd4u,

Because the HP6200 is circa 2011, I would strongly suggest the same size hard drive as the original, or a drive not to exceed 2Terabytes. The link above shows the standard harddrive configuration(s).  There are 4 - SATA300 (SATAII), and 2 - SATA600 (SATAIII) headers Use the SATAIII port, as a 64mb cache of these drives will improve data transfer.
