What Type Of Hardrive Is In The Hp.pavilion Dv1100?

The laptop in question was bought in 2004. The laptop has dice broken and I have recovered the hard drive and would like to recover info off it using a universal drive adaptor... but because I don't know the type of drive I don't know which adaptor to buy that would fit it. Any help would be much appreciated. I have pics of the drive if that would help. Thank you
