I've been engaged in doing some semi-n00b-grade upgrades to my machine. Got some bigger RAM sticks (wrong kind), got a replacement 7200RPM HD (wrong connectors). I'm learning as I'm going here. As an old fossil on a fixed income, by budget is limited, so I have to shop around. I'm looking for another, bigger HD and I may have found one, but there's a compatibility question. My machine's an older Compaq Presario, 5WV280, with an 06E4h MOBO, 900MHz CPU and 512M of RAM. I've been eyeing a 7200RPM 500G HD. Am I thinking in terms of a viable HD or a funny-looking, oversize paperweight?
