      I've found that they usually don't have deals on laptop hds as they do with normal desktop harddrives with the insane rebates and stuff.

      I always buy laptop drives from either newegg.com or zipzoomfly.com.

                  yeah, i have been looking around and I have yet to see a nice rebate anywhere

                  I live 1 mile from www.monarchcomputer.com , I might go up there tomorrow and see if they will cut me a nice deal

                                          probably...I honestly will probably have it replaced before it finally goes....it just won't be stable

                                          I just ordered a new one off newegg, 80gb for $79

                                              The Western Digital Scorpio? I picked one up a month ago myself. If so, you might want to download the format utility from Western Digital and make a utlity disk. Windows format did not work w/ my drive.

                                                                          2.5" drive

                                                                          get a small screwdriver kit and try it - if the bottom panel don't come off approach from the top and if tis stuck around the bit what holds the monitor on try popping the housing that creeps up the monitor bit off to the side

                                                                          OK!
