This is for a T7200 2.0GHz Core2 laptop (IBM T60) used by my 11 year old.

I didn't want to spend the dough for a SSD and he just crashed his drive.

Everything is much more snappy.

The drive was just under $70 when I purchased it.

I did the same upgrade (but my Scorpio is 320GB, IIRC) in my Asus EEEPC (original dog slow Atom CPU). The difference is pretty amazing, especially with a lower-end CPU/chipset. Congrats on the "new laptop!"
