Laptop hard drives are pretty much standard, so any brand 2.5" drive will fit. Don't worry about finding the exact same model, all you need to know is, is it SATA or IDE?

SATA will have 2 L shaped connectors at the end, IDE has 2 rows of pins.

Have a look at this picture

They are desktop hard drives but they are similar connectors. The top is SATA, the bottom IDE.

OK OK I can't go any faster! aaaaaaaaaaaagh!
