Your main problems here are...
1. selecting a hard drive
2. configuring it properly
3. installing it without blowing the IDE controller
4. booting up the system so you have CD-ROM drivers.
5. installing the O/S
6. Also note that you might want to set your old hard drive up as a slave so that you can have access to it's information and have additional storage.

Thank you very much. I have one other question. Does it need to be an ATA100?

Any 3.5" drive, probably IDE interface. Your old hard drive is a 60gb, but any capacity will work. Heres a couple that would work.

Does copying a file multiple times, like across multiple hard drives (internal or external), corrupt or cause loss of quality?

You're reading I have an older HP pavilion 522n desktop and was wanting to change out the hard drive on it. I have been having problems finding out what would be a compatible replacement. Can anyone help?
