No, the world has 2 main types of hard drives and they go by only a difference in size (2.5 or 3.5) and connection type (IDE or SATA). Some laptops will have a unique connecter that you will need to take off and put on the new one. Look for a 2.5″ 7200 RPM that is 80GB or bigger. Also do not partition the drive unless you will have 2 OS on it.
