Compaq Presario V6000 laptop Hard drive replacement help

[llanita1]

I hve a Compaq Presario V6000 Model Number:V631OUS

I have to replace the harddrive on my laptop and I checked online for a suitable replacement and it came up with a Western Digital 120GB (WD1200BEVS) 5400rpm SATA 8MB Notebook Hard Drive (2.5 inch).

Specification

• Mfr Part Number: WD1200BEVS
• Capacity: 120 GB
• Rotational Speed: 5,400 rpm
• Cache: 8 MB
• Interface: SATA 150
• Max. External Transfer Rate: 150 MB/s
• Seek Time:
  • Read: 12.0 ms
  • Track-To-Track: 2.0 ms
• Dimension (WxLxH): 2.75 x 3.94 x 0.374 inch / 69.85 x 100.2 x 9.5 mm
• Weight: 0.26 lbs / 0.117 kg

I need to know if this is correct and if it's close to the one already on my laptop.

Thanks

Hello viviousvulcan,

With replacing your hard driver, I can not guarantee that the Hitachi that you have will work. I have included though the 'Compaq Presario V6000 Notebook PC - Maintenance and Service Guide'. If you take a look at page 121, it will list the part numbers for compatible hard drives.

Please let me know if this answers your question, thank you.

i have a same laptop V6000, my hard disk size is 120Gb, now it is too less to handle the data, i am looking for upgrading it. So can i use same SATA 500GB laptop hard disk from WD. will my laptop support this much capacity disk, does it have any negative impact on the performance
