Hi Deb -

It depends on what she uses the laptop for.  I upgraded my original laptop
from an 80GB to a 100GB.  Now I would love to have something closer to 160GB
to 200GB.  My point is that I think 30GB doesn't seem like very much.
Although if it's Windows 98, and she doesn't do much, then it's fine.

That said, I love shopping on NewEgg.com.  Here is a list of laptop drives
that they have available:

Toshiba 60GB drive for $46
Western Digital 120GB for $69

Subject: [wdvltalk] OT: is this a good price on a hard drive?

Hi there,

My daughter's laptop's hard drive is shot it 
looks like.  "Missing Operating System" is all I 
can get it to do.  Have tried inserting the 
recovery cd and a Win98SE cd - same message.  I 
opened it up and pulled the drive and reseated it 
twice - just in case it had come loose.  No 
luck.  I'm wondering if this is a good price and 
place to purchase her a new drive:

$55 for the 30GB drive.  Never had to buy one 
before so I don't have a clue.  Thanks for your help.
