#smallest hdd

External mobile hard drives are pretty common nowadays and to get some attention, Freecom claims it owns the world's smallest external HDD in the 2.5" category. This mobile HDD sent in by PCTrends has a capacity of 320GB, covered by a rubber case and comes with a USB cable. The Freecom XXS mobile HDD costs about Php3,550 in stores. The HDD on my Acer Aspire S3 conked out a couple of days ago. This is the first time I've had a laptop HDD crashed on me. With the right screw driver and a spare 2.5" 750GB Western Digital HDD lying around, I thought I could replace it myself. After a couple of hours struggling with the dozen or so screws, I managed to peel off the back cover and removed the damaged HDD. Problem though is that when I was placing the new HDD, it would not fit on the bay.
