    Sorry did a search but couldn't find what I was looking for and don't want to make an expensive mistake !

    My wife dropped her laptop and the disk head has gone, the disk itself is (was) a "Hitachi HTS54505089a300 500GB 2.5in SATA 3GB/s 5400rpm" - just wondering do I have to replace it with a sata III disk or will a sata II disk do

    I've seen PCWorld to a 320 sata III disk for €69 ish http://www.pcworld.ie/Product/WD-Mainstream-25-Internal-Hard-Drive-320-GB/315981/128.2

    Is this good value & will is just fit in ?

    Secondly, I've a product key for windows 7 Home Premium but no disk - how do I go about getting new media to use with the original key.

    Again, apologies if its been asked, but thought this was the best place to get the right info
