I just did my first notebook hard drive upgrade and it went flawlessly, the drive is also quiet. I'm enjoying the new speed plus the flexibility of using my old stock drive as a new backup drive...my first ever REAL backup drive (up till now i've relied on iPods)

Just wanted to share this i know its nothing new but to me...
 
Congrats!
It is a good feeling!

What drive did you install?

The WD Scorpio Black 7200RPM. I upgraded purely for the speed as space is not an issue for me yet, will most likely do an SSD upgrade in the future when they get cheaper
 
Congrats! I still remember my first time inside computer and it was awesome and scary. My heart was beating ten times faster than usually.

Nice! Looks like a great drive. I have the Scorpio Blue and love it.
I followed the online video and it was flawless as well.
Nice feeling to accomplish something with no glitches.
