Great to hear you have it sorted, keep us posted if anything does go wrong, but from here out this part of your Mac life should be sorted

Hi guys,

The upgrade has been done, I now have 766 mb spare on my MacBook pro. It runs great and hasn't overheated. So far so good.

Cheers

I sure hope you meant to write 766gbs
Can you take a picture of how much it sticks out when mounted?

Any 12.5mm or smaller drive will fit in a 2009 or 2010 Unibody

Any 12.5mm or smaller drive will fit in a 2009 or 2010 Unibody 13, 15, or 17" Macbook Pro. Currenty there are two that I am aware of. The WD10TPVT Blue Western Digital is a 5200RPM Drive (runs faster than you would think). The Samsung Spinpoint 5400RPM HM100UI drive.

Both will fit with no issues, plenty of room and they do not overheat.

Personally I recommend the Western Digital because the Samsungs have had some problems late last year.


Hope that helps!
