Powerbook 12" HD died. Replacement tips, guys?

Can anybody point me to my cheapest option (new or used) to replace the HD in my 12" 867 powerbook?

A useful web-based graphic install guide would be awesome, too!

Thanx!

make sure you get the right drive, being an older one it is likely IDE, not SATA150 so be sure to get an IDE hd.

This is the one I'm looking at:

If this drive will work, am I fgoolish to go with the lower RPM rate?

I've always bought slower RPM hard drive to save cost and have been perfectly happy with them performance wise, but I also don't have the experience with a faster drive to compare too. From what I hear, it is pretty noticeable so if you can afford it you might as well go with it.
