[QUOTE="s2odin, post: 1134118, member: 176525"] The 2.5" form factor is what laptops use. A 3.5" form factor is for desktops. The 2.5" drives 750GB+ are 99% likely to be 12.5mm in height tho so they won't fit although they are 2.5" drives technically. So basically anything 500GB and under with a 2.5" form factor will work. If you have questions as to if something will work or not, I would say e-mail the company and see if it will work on your laptop. Give them the model, or see if you can find if it is a 9.5 or 12.5mm drive. [/QUOTE]
