Can I just buy any hard drive and install it or do I have to go back and find one that's only compatible with that model?


SATA III, 2.5" for a laptop. Not 3.5". Odds are it isn't a 1.8". Those are pretty uncommon. Buy an SSD and your mind will be blown by how fast your "old" computer is.

Otherwise, I know that benchmarks don't show a difference between 5400rpm and 7200rpm drives, but I find 5400rpm drives to be noticeably slower when used on the same system (a MacBook, actually).
