It looks to me like it's a mobile IDE drive. It uses different pinouts than desktop IDE drives do, but there are converters available for them. I bought one from Newegg, I'm pretty sure.

Here it is?http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812203012


And it looks like it already has some sort of adapter on it, so you'd have to pull that off first before putting this one on.
