Thanks for the info. I ended up getting the Samsung 40GB 5400RPM 8MB @ http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822152501

Hope it works out for you. I think I have the exact same model! You should really appreciate the increase in speed and quietness. It certainly helps make this old Thinkpad of mine a little more snappy. Let us know how it goes!
