install is easy

there will be a sticky tab in the box with the other gubbins you got , it sticks to the top front of the H/D ( opp end to pins and side that does not have circuit board )

flap on front of box flips down from right hand side , put H/D into exposed hole board side down and slowly push back till it engages plug inside

easy peasy lemon squeesy

basically your looking for a 2.5" ide hard disk drive, you can get 120gb for approx £40 from a reputable website, i wouldnt bother getting off ebay, they probably more expensive anyway,

i always buy my stuff from Scan.co.uk: Computer Hardware - All

i think western digital and seagate are meant to be most compatiable with the eurovox
