Hello,

for my PC i'm looking for a laptop hard drive. The requirements are (most important first):

* Cheap; low budget
* laptop 2.5" format
* Decent quality
* 20GB is enough
* SATA interface
* silent, although my guess is that all laptop drives are silent..

your expert advice please!

Watch for deals in Belgium. If speed is important you will want 7200rpm. Noise will not be a issue in a desktop.

I need brands, types.. speed is not important.

I don't think there is any SATA harddrives smaller than 60GB.
For the brand, I recommend Seagate and Western Digital. Samsung is a cheaper choice, although it's a little bit risky, personally speaking.
When it comes to harddrives, nothing is more important than stability and reliability, so be sure to buy one well-esteemed.
