is this a 2.5in drive?

footprint yes, but I don't think it can be used as a normal drive. it is for caching the physical mechanical hard drive.

No. Order the correct size HDD enclosure. I think it's a 2.5". Or, get one of the docking stations.

the other two replies here are a bit misleading; yes all notebook-sized hard drives are 2.5" platters, but the drive height is what makes a difference. standard is 9.5mm, while the drive you linked is 12.5mm. i haven't actually received the laptop yet, though i did read a review saying there appeared to be enough room for a larger drive like that.safest bet is to stick with 9.5mm height drives, of which 1tb varieties were recently made available. hope this helps!

No it's not. And i returned mine necause it wasn't even the size it was supposed to be. It was less than 1 TB

This is a full size internal drive intended for use inside a standard 5.25" drive slot. If you wish to use it externally, you will need a drive enclosure. Search under "5.25" drive enclosure"to find the appropriate type.

it should fit any 2.5in drive. Its a universal adapter to allow for proper mounting in 3.5in drive bays.

Yes, I have the manual and it says you can connect USB thumb drive to it. I am not sure about an USB 2.5" HDD as this external drive requires some strong power source to operate properly.

Yes this caddy accepts a 2.5" SATA drive and fits into the CD bay once the CD is removed. The drive functions as an alternative drive and can be used as a boot drive if it contains an OS.

This is a notebook/laptop 2.5" drive! For desktops you should be looking at 3.5", unless your desktop is different and requires a 2.5" drive (like an iMac).

It's the size of your typical thumb drive, about 2.5 inches long and less than an inch wide.

If it's truly an a 2.5 inch drive, then it would fit perfectly in the ultra bay caddy. I have an 2.5 inch SSD and it works flawlessly.

Assuming you are talking about a 2.5 inch (not millimeter) drive, then yes. All standard 2.5 inch SATA drives should fit in this enclosure.

I installed a Crucial M500 120GB SSD SATA 3 2.5" Hard Drive and it is working well. It has to be 2.5". Not sure on SATA 2.

No. It does not come with a 2.5 adapter. I wish it did. I actually had to use a 2.5" drive when the 3.5" WD Green that I originally installed died. I was able to connect the 2.5" drive but there was no way to secure it in position. I had to use tape temporarily.

Yes. The loading area has the main opening that matches 2.5 drives. There is a larger, spring loaded door that a 3.5 drive pushes down and out of the way. I have used both size drives with no issue.

Yep. There is a mount at the bottom of the case that will take a 2.5 or 3.5 inch drive. You can also get adapters to put a 2.5 in any 3.5 slot.Specifically on this case, you may want to watch this quick unboxing and feature review video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v;=qJutw4eyvJ4

3.5" is desktop, 2.5" is laptop, there are caddies that will allow you to mount a 2.5" disk on a desktop, since the SATA connectors are the same
