Hi, i've got a hp pavilion n5390 running win98se because of a personal choice (i'm really biased towards this version and away from winxp), i've got a IBM DJSA-220 hard disk drive (20GB)currently running with a few problems (clicks and strange sounds, so i've decided to replace the old hdd), i've already backed up all my data and i'm about to buy a TOSHIBA MK-4025GAS hdd (40GB). I've got some expertise related to replacement and assembly of parts and computers, the reason why i'm posting this is because i wanna be sure (or at least as sure as possible) that this new hdd won't have any compatibility issues with my notebook, i've checked the HP web site wihtout any luck about this issue, so i'm addressing to your infinite wisdom to help me here. Thanks in advance for any help you can lend me.
