Dell laptop with Toshiba ATA 40gb hard drive
Hard Drive stared making a terrible noise while using my laptop.
Got the error 0f00 0244
Msg; Block 585542: Uncorrectable data error
Just wondering if this can be fixed and if not can I get a new hard drive off ebay and if so could someone recommend one as I am unsure about compatability and such.

Just about any 2.5" SATA drive should work. I like the hitachi 500GB units...they seem reliable enough...and they are the best GB-per-dollar you will find in a laptop drive.

Cheers KillerBug. I don't really need one that size.
I am trying to choose from the following
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6-278-_-Product
http://cgi.ebay.ie/320GB-SATA-Internal-H...=item2557bfc2b8
http://cgi.ebay.ie/160GB-Samsung-2-5-IDE...=item2a03755a8c
http://cgi.ebay.ie/2-5-TOSHIBA-80GB-LAPT...=item3a55da01fc
Would I notice a big difference between 16mb vs 8mb cache.

Sorry for being a huge noob but I am not entirely sure if my hard drive interface is IDE or SATA. This is the broken hard drive in my laptop.
http://www.superwarehouse.com/Toshiba_40...DD2193/p/357828
It say Interface: DMA/ATA-100 (Ultra) whih I thought ment it was SATA but it's listed under IDE hard drives.
