I'm finally feeling the squeeze on the 10GB drive in my Ti book and am thinking about replacing it with something beefier.

Can someone fill me in on the specs for the Ti Book HD? I'd guess 9.5mm, 40-pin ATA 66. That sound right? Don't want to order something and have it not work/fit.

Thanks in advance!

I just replaced my 10 gig with an IBM TravelStar 30 Gig GN. It works great. It is a 9.5 mm and fit just fine. Nice and quiet.

yeah, i also upgraded my 10gb drive to the travelstar 30gb. for some reason, though, my drive is kind a noisy when it's reading. any idea why?

justin -- re which drives will work with your Ti book, you may find these links useful. this first is for which -- the second for how.

I, too, upgraded my Ti 10GB to the Travelstar 30GN (seems like a trend).

yap_brian, did you make sure to get the GN drive? The old 30 GB drive was quite noisy. The GN is nothing near "noisy". Even in the quiet solitude of night (that should be a song), I only hear a faint and not too unpleasant clinkety-clink when the heads access the drive.
