HDD Protection Upgrade Options
Hi. I've got a Toshiba Satellite Pro A120-187 laptop (model no. PSAC1E-05T021EN, purchased Sept 07) which comes with Toshiba HDD Protection against shocks/falls and I want to upgrade my current 120GB Fujitsu MHV2120BH PL HDD. However, am I able to just pick up any 2.5" drive or will there be a compatibility issue with the HDD protection? Do I have to buy an HDD with an internal shock sensor or are these shock sensors part of the laptop motherboard?

Motherboard details (From CPU-Z)
Model: Portable PC (0x000003EC - 0x103CB030) version A0
BIOS: ACPI Bios version 3.20

Thanks
