Here's what I'm using now. I tried (you won't believe it) about 12 different drives trying to improve performance, price, size, noise and temp.

If you want a 60GB, try:

If you use an 80GB, it will simply provide you with the 64GB max and a small amount will go unused, but it will still work.

I like 5400rpm drives (like the original.) They're quieter and cooler.

The links I gave you are a fine source. Cheap, fast and reliable.
Good luck.
