Armada 7360 hard drive by Salem Farm & Garden
I have an Armada 7360 with a 4 gig hard drive and would like to get up to about 12 gig but the HP site does not give the maximum hard drive size. I'd just replace it but my employees who are mechanics use it and I don't want them ruining something newer.
