Depends on wether its a IDE or SATA connection but ebuyer, cclonline and microdirect are the sites a mainly use.

for example

2.5" SATA Hard Drives from CCL - Awarded PC Pro Best Online Retailer of the Year 2008 for PC, PC Components, Laptops, Notebook, Computer Components, Intel Servers, Hard Drives, PC Memory

those are the sata drives for laptops

If it is SATA & you want speed... Have a look at the SSD Hard Drives. Granted it will be costly & might not give you more space...but they are lightening fast.
