Great Upgrade for Older Laptops

Excellent replacement or upgrade for PATA/IDE/EIDE drives in older laptops. Quiet and fast. I've used them to upgrade drives and replace failed drives. TIP: Buy/borrow an external drive enclosure, insert the new drive into the enclosure, use Clonezilla ([.]) to copy all the data from the old drive (including multiple operating systems, diagnostic partitions, etc.) to the new drive Replace the old hard drive with a new one and just boot.

Pros
