Have seen a couple of places that say it will fit in the 17" unibody.

Have only seen one place that indicates it would fit in the other unibodies.

Until now. OWC's page for this and the 750 GB says they will fit in all unibodies.

See here.

OWC is one of the reputable Mac hardware dealers. Can't see them promoting something that would not work.
