I have a 2007 MacBook Pro and have partitioned part of the drive for Windows Vista. I could use more HDD space on both partitions. Is there a way to get a 320GB drive into this notebook computer or do I have to buy a new computer? I currently have a 160GB 7,200rpm drive.

You can replace the drive with any 2.5" SATA drive. Do a search. There are many discussions about doing this here and guides are available at http://www.ifixit.com.

Thanks Steve. I'm assuming this will void my AppleCare warranty?

Technically speaking It will void your warranty if you break anything. What ever you break will not be covered.
