I've put a 250gb 7200rpm drive in an Early 2006 with no problems.
For a new hard drive try Newegg.com http://www.newegg.com/Store/SubCategory.aspx?SubCategory=380&name=Laptop-Hard-Dr ives&Order=PRICE

Here are instructions on replacing the hard drive in a MacBook with a removable battery. http://creativemac.digitalmedianet.com/articles/viewarticle.jsp?id=45088
To transfer your current hard drive I like the free application Carbon Copy Cloner. It makes a bootable copy of everything on your hard drive http://www.bombich.com/index.html You'll need a cheap SATA external hard drive case. Put the new drive in the case then format and partition the new drive and clone your old drive to the new one. Check that it's set up right by booting up from the external drive. Then replace your old hard drive with the new one and put your old one in the external case.

After you restore from backup, you MUST sync to restore your iTunes content. No iTunes content is included in the iPhone backup. Your apps should be in your iTunes library, just sync them back to your phone. If for some reason your apps are not in your library, you can re-download them for free:

Can someone recommend a replacement hard drive for my June 2009 17"MBP?

I need at least 750GB. My current HD is 500GB but I only have 90GB remaining as I have a lot of videos stored on the machine. Can someone recommend a HD that has at least 750GB of space and performs well with a 17"MBP?

If you are expecting to copy commercial, theatrical DVDs to any hard drive, DVDs are copy protected and you will find that no computer will let you copy copy-protected commercial DVDs.
If your movies are purchased downloads from other sources like iTunes or Ultraviolet digital copies, then you will be able to make a limited number of copies for backup and storage onto an external hard drive
There are ways to overcome this issue, but we are not allowed to discuss anything about DVDs that can break that copy protection.
So, no one in these forums will be able to help you with that issue.
You will have to do your own Internet searches for your own solutions to this issue.

How can i tell how much hard drive space my website is taking up on my computer?

I have a website that i build through iweb and publish via mobile me. i have about 200 podcasts on the site, and I am trying to figure out how much hard drive space this is taking up on my computer. these files are not in itunes, and i'm not concerned about the space they are taking up in my cloud, i just want to know how much space on my computer they are taking up because i'm trying to decide if i should move my iweb site to a different computer to alleviate some space issues. any help would be much appreciated.

Check the size of the Domain.site2 file that is in your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder. it contains all of the files used to create and publish your site. I'm not sure if it copies the podcasts into it or not. You can open the domain package and do a search for them. Just don't move, rename or delete any files inside that package or your site is toast.

How can I tell if my hard drive crashed

I've had my MacBook for slightly more than one year and for no reason that I can think of it will only boot up to a screen that looks like an apple with a problem. I took it to an Apple store and they told me that he hard driv crashed and it would cost $700 for a new one. I paid $1000 for it brand-new. Any suggestions to determine if it is the hard drive and how I might be able to salvage what's on it/get it going again? Please help!

Try this first:
Extended Hard Drive Preparation
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder. If you need to reformat your startup volume, then you must boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger or Leopard.)
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (only required for Intel Macs) then click on the OK button. Set the number of partitions from the dropdown menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the volume(s) mount on the Desktop.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
This will erase any data stored on the drive, so I hope you have backups.
If the drive still cannot be made functional or the SMART status indicates the drive is failing, then you will need to replace it. It won't cost $700 and you can do it yourself: MacBook (13 inch) Hard Drive Replacement Instructions (Do it yourself Manual).
Replacement drives can run from $50 to $350 depending upon size, make, model, and speed. You can find replacement drives at OWC. Your computer can use any 2.5" notebook SATA drive up to 320 GBs. Only Samsung makes a 500 GB drive that will fit in a Macbook.

How Can I Tell If My Hard Drive Is Bad?

My MacBook Pro 17" will not boot. The hard drive begins to spin, and after 5 seconds or so a very short, quiet beep sounds and the hard drive winds down. Is this indicative of a bad hard drive, or is there some other test or procedure I can perform to verify that the hard drive is either good for sure, or bad for sure.

beep sounds
That's one sure sign!
Common symptoms of a dying hard drive
Hard drive is making a clicking, whirring, grinding, ping pong ball noise or any other type of unusual noises.
Hard drive is not spinning.
Computer is not recognizing the hard drive.
Sluggish loading of applications.
System freezes and hangs.

How can I tell what size hard drive I have in my macbook

Just seeing if there's any value (doubtful) to this old computer I have. I'm sure it's easy enough to find but it's not matching what the prompts are for hard drive size, e.g. 120gb, 128gb, etc. Gazelle is having a promo asking for this info.
Oh, and my battery doesn't keep a charge so I have to keep it plugged in to work. The kids use it for their school computer but since I have a MacBook Pro I should probably just let them use mine, as a guest user.
Thoughts?
Thanks!

Single click on the hard drive image in the upper right corner (usually called Macintosh HD). Then right-click and pull down to Get Info.
BTW, What model MB is it?

Which Hard Drives to get

Hi, I had a look around the forum and found some interesting posts but as things tend to change often thought I should start a new thread.
I have a RAID 0 array with two Seagate Barracuda drives and one seems to of died (after under 2 years). Some research indicates these drives were probably not a good choose and Western Digital produce the most reliable drives (well this seems to be the consensus in what look like well written/researched articles).
I was going to get the WE Red but am not sure if they are 72000 spin speed. The other options seems to be the Black and the SE (whatever SE stands for). These come with 5 years warrente which is encoring. If the Red are 72000 I would go for these but if not which others should I go for.
Regards,
Ben

The WD Red is 5400 rpm - stay away from them except for storing photographs or spreadsheets. They work fine, just not for video editing.
Go for the Black.

You need iTunes 10.7 (the current version at the moment) in order to upgrade your iPod Touch to iO6.
You can always do an Over-the-Air (OTA) update as well via Settings -> General -> Software Update if you are already running iOS 5 or later.
