Changing a Toshiba Satellite L650 Laptop Notbook Computer Hard Drive

I had my disk crash. I guess because I was not very careful when I was taking my toshiba laptop on the road.

When I started shopping on-line for a new 500 Gig hard drive for my computer, I noticed that there is a new type of hard drive that I need to be aware of. The difference is the connection for this new Satellite L650 with the older models. It is called a SATA connection.

When I looked for this SATA drive I noticed that I can get it from Toshiba so it is all compatible with my computer and so I don't have to worry about it fitting correctly into the hard drive.
