Our 12" Powerbook's SMART is reporting that the hard drive is "Failing."

Any recommendations for a replacement drive?

Thanks.

I bought a 60 gig 7200 RPM external 2.5" drive this summer and it has been holding up great. I use it every day as my main drive for work files, since I can easilly move it between my desktop and Powerbook. Saves me the trouble of constantly duplicating files.

Here are a few to choose from, the 80 and 100 gig are available now;

I'm planning on replacing the internal 4200 RPM drives on both Powerbooks here with these 7200 models.
