Pavilion 7855 How to Replace Hard Drive

Imminent failure is the message I received. I have a few other hard drives but don't know too much about what is compatible or how to remove and replace the drive. I am not afraid to tear into a PC and have replaced modems, added cards and other little things. Grateful for any ideas, suggestions, websites that will help.

Donna,

Take a look here for the spare: http://h20141.www2.hp.com/hpparts/Search_Hierarchy.asp?SearchId=46143&Level=4&LevelDesc=hp%20pavilion%207800%20desktop%20PC%20series

Then get in, tear the old one out and put the new one in. As long as you note what cables went to where and any jumper setting on the drive, what can go wrong!!
