What is your machine ? Must be 500-something for example HP Pavilion 500-054:

Your machine may have same 1.5TB 7200RPM HDD. I don't think vendors make 1.5TB HDD's now, you can use 2TB HDD from many brands around or buy 1.5GB from HP  (part # NY975-69001) as shown:

with around 80 dollars as shown:
