I am not that tech/computer savvy------However, I have a Toshiba Tecra 510CDT, 133 mhz laptop. I want to know if the following hard drive is compatible. (I can get it free, if it is): TOSHIBA HARD DRIVE FOR LAPTOP...4 GIG....MK4313MAT....HDD2141. Very thin..measures about 3/8".
Look at the
Toshiba user manual. Some laptops do not have a provision for changing the hard drive type or capacity. Check the BIOS and see if there is a
drive selection page.
You should be able to download the book in
PDF from Toshiba.
The determining size (form factor) of a hard drive is its
width. Most laptops use
2.5" drives, most desktops
3.5" drives.
