When buying such power adapters, you typically need to watch for:

1. DC voltage - in this case 19V. This needs to be the same.
2. DC amp rating - since your adapter is rated at 6.32A, you need a replacement that is rated at a minimum of 6.32A, but there's no harm in going higher. Your device will only draw what it needs.
3. DC plug polarity. Most are center positive, as is yours.
4. DC plug size. This is defined by inner and outer diameter. In your case, it's 5.5mmx2.5mm
5. Input voltage. You haven't mentioned your region, but it's a good idea to get international power adapters that accept 100-240V.
