Thanks for the comments and suggestions everyone.

I'm going to buy the Hitachi 320g 7200 RPM from NewEgg (thanks Michael).

Here's to breathing new life into my machine! :)

Thanks

Subject: Re: [Thinkpad] Best replacement drive for T60p?

I have a Samsung HM320JI 320GB 5400RPM drive in my T60. It developed 
some data corruption, but only on the (small) Windows Vista partition 
which was fixed after running Samsung's formatting tools and restoring 
the data.

It's been going just about a year and I use it nearly every day the past 
three months for work.

The drive is also surprisingly quiet.

One very positive Samsung experience here.

Chris
