    This is a nice compact internal hard drive that I used in a case to make it an external one and it is great without the cost of an external one.

    While it does not pay to "upgrade" these days, but to repair what you have or test install a Ubuntu without trying to dual boot. Here's your drive.

    Did a replacement of a "shot" drive in a couple year old laptop. Prepped and loaded the drive. With the help of some online references, no problems so far. Good choice of a drive.
