    As far as I know you will be able to upgrade hard drive which is having support for 7200 RPM support.. this particular Notebook can support for hard drive of 1TB 7200 RPM.

    You can encountered with issues when you are in the process of moving for new hard drive. the thing is dependent on legacy or Advanced Format hard drive. most of the hard drive having large size are of Advanced Format. In case you switch to legacy to the Advanced Format you will see that Windows updates are not working . I found that windows 7 is having an ability to handle AF in proper manner. but in many situation it could not be updated or you can installed additional driver. If you try with Windows XP then situation might become flexile.
