If time is what you say, probably PATA - commonly known as "IDE". (Although both PATA and SATA IDE * technically.)
To HP.COM> Support & Drivers> Enter the model number of your laptop and search for "books" or "specifications. That should tell you what you need to know.
It is more likely to remove the 2.5 "PATA, check the hard drive and just to be safe. There must be a series of 24 and a series of 23 pins.
