Solve : Please help identify my HD so I can order a replacement for a Samsung SV6003H?

Answer»

I need to replace my hard drive. It is a Samsung 60gb model SV6003H.

It has a 39pin connector and a 4 pin connector with an 8 pin between the
4 and 39 pin CONNECTORS.

What type of HD do I look for? I don't know how to identify if it is a
SATI, EIDE, etc. I haven't been ABLE to determine this.

I've been looking for info/pictures of connectors with no luck. Can you help
identify this HD type for me. Where is a good place to hunt down this
information for future searches for HD, DVD, etc.?



Thanks,

That ''8 pin'' sounds like your jumper setting PINS. Should be a diagram on HDD label to show jumper options using a jumper connector. .... often no jumper connector can mean master.

The multi pin connection you describe should be EIDE and the 4 pin other the power connector.

The ''newer'' SATA DATA connection is small and very different and does not use the ribbon type cable - and the power connector (plug) is not the semi clear plastic with two blacks and yellow and red.http://reviews.cnet.com/hard-drives/samsung-spinpoint-v40-sv6003h/4507-3186_7-31921404.html
