How old is you laptop? I'm pretty sure my Core 2 Duo T7200 Dell runs that exact HDD (might be the 60GB instead though) and it works great as my dedicated HTPC for streaming netflix.
I don't actually need the drive, but I'm surprised you're saying it's not compatible with an old laptop. This is a good buy. Even a 7-8 year old laptop should do a lazarus for you with this properly installed.
