i'm not sure how to check for sure, but i think what you can do is to go to your system properties and under device manager look for your current hdd. take note of the model and look up the specs in the manufacturer's website. particularly look for the interface whether it's ata-6 and the ultra dma mode, whether it's a 5. if it is then the harddisk is suitable. however this is how i do it, i don't think it's the best way, but i think it works, for me.
