hey again, sorry for the double thread, but i was just wanting to know, is there any possibility of placing a 1TB HDD in any of the 2010 MBPs (any size, specify which can and which cannot)! regards, skate71290
 
yes, 12.5MM (1TB) drives will fit in the original drive bay, but not as an optibay.
 
So if i went to buy a 13" MBP i can take the stock HDD out and put the 1TB in? what is an optibay?

yes you can.
an optibay is a device that will allow you to fit a hard drive where the superdrive usually is (voids warranty)
 
That sounds kind of cool, shame an external Superdrive couldn't be used and that it voids warranty 🙁 😛
 
you can use an external superdrive alright. I just wouldn't void my warranty for an optibay. (by law we get two years warranty in my country! 😀)
