I have a friend that has an older hp n3350. It may be 3 years old or older, I am not sure. His hard drive is small and is totally full. He has put it over to xp which takes up a lot of the space but wants to keep xp because of all his programs. The hdd is 2.5". Will it take a special hdd or should any 2.5" work?

More than likely, you can just place any 2.5" IDE laptop into the caddy that the old one was in. It should work, so long as the BIOS can support the drive's size. If it's really old, I wouldn't go larger than 100-120GB.
