I want to change the hard drive on my Lenovo Thinkpad X61. The device manager says the hard drive is ST980817AS ATA device. Will this HD be compatible with the laptop? Thank you.

Because it is logical the 1TB is faster than 640GB due to higher density in two platters. This the speed of WD 1TB 5400RPM drive:
