Worked okay, but I had a little problem. Thank goodness for a large
spares box. I had problems booting after replacing my original drive
with the new one. Cutting a long story short *always* have spare SATA
cables, preferably new ones with a clip-lock, when playing with hard
drives. They are very delicate and nowhere near as robust as PATA
connectors.
