I just got finished replacing my internal notebook hard drive. In the process I upgraded to a 250 GB drive from the stock 100 GB one. Taking the notebook apart was a worry of mine till I did it. It wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought. I would not have wanted to dig any deeper into it. If I had had to take the motherboard out I would have been worried. I used a guide over at ifixit. Heres the actual guide I used.

For the most part I don’t need to lug around one of my external 250 GB drives around anymore. I just leave them on my desk. As a side benefit of having a hard drive fail I can now be mobile and have all my music and video with me with about 100 GB of room to spare.
