NOT FOR NOTEBOOKS! But ...

Seagate LD25.2 ST940210A 40GB 5400 RPM 2MB Cache Parallel ATA 2.5" Notebook Hard Drive Bare Drive
Seagate LD25.2 ST940210A 40GB 5400 RPM 2MB Cache Parallel ATA 2.5" Notebook Hard Drive Bare Drive

Pros: Quick, Quiet, works much better than the Hitachi Travelstar 4200RPM drive it replaced. Installed in a Dell Inspiron 1100 and it recognized the full 40 GB.

Cons: Drive is marked "Not for use in Laptop/Notebook computers"! This drive is designed for game consoles and other consumer video applications but not Notebook/Laptop computers. Seagate site says it is not designed for mobile use. The laptop I install it in never leaves the desk, so it should be ok; 5 year warranty, but not sure if this voids it.

Overall Review: Newegg should make this clear on the site. It is listed under Laptop Hard Drives. Great price and service as always, Newegg!
