There's a newer version of that Seagate HDD that retails for just about the same price as the older model. It's the Seagate 500GB BarraCuda 5400 RPM 128MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 2.5" Laptop Internal Hard Drive ST500LM030

Should work fine. The higher sata 6gb/s rating is backwards compatible from what I understand. It will just run slower @ 3Gb/s like the drive that crashed instead of full rated speed. Same cables. Same form factor.
