Cool Notebook / Laptop hard drive

Does anyone know where i can get a new or refurbished harddrive for my notebook. I dont need much storage space, approx 6GB minimum, and it must be a standard 2.5" notebook drive. I want to spend less than £30!

I would prefer not to buy of ebay

I have promised to fix a friends notebook, but have just realised it is hard to get a sub 20GB HDD for a notebook.

For the price u want to pay your best bet is to go along to your local computer fair and have a look there....

as you have probably found, most new disks start from about £35 .....

Edit - not too sure this is the correct forum for your Q....
