Question : Bigger hard drive for Latitude D420

I've got a Latitude D420 that has a Toshiba 80GB 1.8" ZIF Hard Drive.

Is there a larger size hard drive I could get for this?

Searched Newegg - no results
Called Dell - they only have an 80GB

Dell says 80GB is the Max. However I searched ebay and see larger ones, but I cannot tell if they will work with this laptop. They are 1.8" but it doesn't say if it connects to the system or not.

Answer : Bigger hard drive for Latitude D420

First, take out the hard drive and compare it to anything you find online.  I tried to find some standards, but they all pretty much look the same from what I could see.  

However, these drives look kind of pricey. If it were me, I would just get an external hard drive.  Your programs and system folder won't fill up a 80 GB hdd.  If you offload your music and documents to an external drive, it would be much cheaper.  External 2.5" drive enclosure is about $10 + $50-$100 for 2.5" hard drive.
