IDE errors while doing Diagnostics........
This is related to my other post not all that long ago. I got out my diagnostic cd and ran the diagnositc test for "Can not boot the OS" The errors I encountered where the IDE Disk S/N=652N9984T -Read Test. I got error codes 0F00:0244 and msg's for blocks 6420100 ,6421612 and block 6428=0856. In the Verify Test I got the the exact same error's , the same error code and the same 3 blocks msg's which read :uncorrectable data error or media is write protected. Yesterday my labtop was just fine today I get all this. I did get this while trying to boot my pc on the battery today, but I don't how that could be related at all.

Where do I go to get a new one? Do I contact Dell? I'm guessing you can't get HD's for Dells just anywhere?
In the future, by using the Advanced Forum Search on the bottom of this page, you can quite easily find the answer to this often asked question.
Actually you can. Dell may have an ok price, usually Newegg or ZipZoomFly is better. 2.5" 9.5mm PATA (not SATA) drive.
