It is a 2.5 inch style drive. But check the specs to make sure this drive is the right thickness (height) for your application. I use TWO of these in my Mac Mini which I upgraded. Like them very much so far, no problems here.

It is an internal laptop hard drive. However it can be connected via USB if you have this device:http://www.sabrent.com/category/hard-drive-enclosures/USB-DSC5/I fhave found this device quite handy as you can connect any IDE or SATA drive to a computer via USB.

It is a 2.5 inch internal hard drive. It is a laptop hard drive, all laptop's take a 2.5 inch harddrive, however not all are a SATA. Most are anymore, if you are going to put it in a desktop you want need an adapter tray. For the price this is a nice drive.

Just jumping in to confirm that even though this comes up in a search for laptop drives, it is a desktop drive. The title and tech details don't tell you that unless you click the link for more info - which is unfortunate. I got fooled ...

Hello James, i haven't opened the box as yet but it doesn't say on the box whether or not it has a hard drive. I don't think it has one though.

If your current drive on your laptop is a SATA drive then this hard drive by Western Digital should work for you.

Pretty sure HDD is, and 1 of the memory modules. The other memory module is buried deeper in the laptop. I plan on upgrading the HDD to a samsung 840 SSD when I get this.

Yup, most definitely. All modern laptops (the last 10 years+) use SATA type 2.5" hard drives.

No it is not. The connectors on those drives are different than laptop arrives.

From what I was able to quickly google about your laptop, it uses a SATA (Serial ATA) hard drive. This just means the type of pin connectors your laptop uses to connect the hard drive. There is also UATA (Ultra ATA) the other major type. Some laptops have propriotary ports called ZIF connectors, which wouldnt work with this. Double check your hard drive type and if its SATA, it should work fine. Here's a website that explains it: http://www.computershopper.com/laptops/howto/replace-your-laptop-s-hard-drive Here's another site that goes into more detail if you are interested: http://www.geeks.com/techtips/2005/techtips-010605.htm

Yes, you should be able to remove the hard drive from the laptop, hook it up to this gadget, and then connect it to another computer through a USB port. It will show up as a drive. It worked pretty slick on my crashed computer hard drive. The only problem I had was when I tried one of the plug in options {the one that looked most familiar to me} and it didn't work. Lord knows why there are two choices, there are no directions. The second one worked perfectly.

Yes. It is an external hard drive. It will behave as another drive on your computer.

No, it is basically a plug-in replacement for a laptop drive. If you need a cable, you will have to buy one.

I have no idea about the laptop but I have it in a Sony Vaio with that hard disk.

It came as a bare drive. I used it to replace a 5400rpm laptop drive. If you want to use it as an external hard drive you will need to buy a separate case for a 2.5 inch Sata hard drive.

It is closed and sealed, ready to put into your laptop. The hard drives are often shown (senselessly) as if you could see their internal parts, you will not.
