Here are all of the notebook HDD I can find. I have the 200GB in my notebook and it is really good. As for copying all of the recovery data i am not sure its possible as it is done with a special program although you may be able to do a straight copy using another computer.

Here is the specification for the Vaio you mention but i don't know the disk that is in it. Do you have a model number for the disk?

Here is the full specification for your drive. I would suggest that look look at the 200GB hard drive although the upcoming 300GB looks very interesting as it contains new technology. I would definately stick with Fujitsu as they are possible the best for notebook hdd.

Personally i would buy them from overclockers as they are very good. These disks are exactly the same as the one you already have bar the fact that they have a larger capacity. Would probably stick with the 200 or the 250Gb as they are more reasonably priced and more readily availaible.
