Well, it depends on which Presario 1640 you are referring to. Compaq is one of those companies with an aggravating habit of recycling model numbers.
If you are referring to the Presario 1640 laptop (late 1990s), the hard drive is an IDE (PATA) 2.5" form factor, 12.5 mm height. The original was 4.0 GB.
On the other hand, Compaq also made a series of 1640 desktop PCs in 2005 -- the SR1640AP, the SR1640FR, and the SR1640TW. All of these were shipped with large capacity SATA hard drives.
