New The Crucial M4 is nice.
If you can live with "512" GB, it's a good choice. It's a pain to try to shrink larger partitions to fit on it though.

Have fun with it.

Cheers,
Scott.

New Right now...
I'm not worried with the hard disk or the amount of memory. That is a "later" thing

Currently, I can do all I need to do in 4GB of memory and a 200GB disk with 30GB dedicated to Windows XP and the rescue partitions. Though I've only booted Windows 4 times now on this T61 I have right now. Those were to update Firmware and so on for the hardware.

I doubt I'll boot Windows on this new one any more often.
