[ltp] What HD do you recommend?

[Felix E. Klee]

Hi,

Sorry if this is OT but I don't know any better place to ask. 

I would like to replace the 6GB HD in my Thinkpad 1267i; therefore I
looked at the price list of a popular online retailer (www.alternate.de)
in Germany and found the following disks:

Fujitsu:
Type        Size Height Access/Cache/RPM Interface Price
MHL2300AT   30GB 12.5mm 12/2048/4200     U-66 IDE  367.62EUR
MHM2200AT   20GB  9.5mm 12/2048/4200     U-66 IDE  188.67EUR

IBM:
DARA-218000 18GB 12.5mm 12/ 512/4200     U-66 IDE  152.88EUR 
DJSA-220    20GB  9.5mm 12/2048/4200     U-66 IDE  163.10EUR  
DJSA-230    30GB 12.5mm 12/2048/4200     U-66 IDE  331.83EUR   
DJSA-232    32GB 12.5mm 12/2048/5400     U-66 IDE  480.10EUR
 
Toshiba:
MK-2016GAP  20GB  9.5mm 13/1024/4200     U-66 IDE  183.55 EUR   
  
Can anyone recommend some of these or comment on how fast, how noisy,
etc. they are? Also, are there any other good drives (>15GB)?

And most important: does a 12.5mm disk fit into the port or is it too
big (I can't find that info on the IBM web site)?

TIA,

Felix
