Small question about SSD

[Kipperdesign]

Hi guys,

Yes, it's yet another ssd question thread

Anyways, I'll keep it short, I was looking into replacing my HDD with an Intel SSD 320 series (Intel SSD 320 Series 300GB, SATA-II, 2.5 Zoll, Desktop Kit < is that enough information or will you need more?).

Two quick questions: Can I replace my HDD or will I need to replace my ODD (Tutorial I found here: Link to tutorial) Also will this SDD fit into a late 2008 MBP size-wise? Would be uncool to spend all the money just to figure it wont fit

Thanks for answers in advance,

wish you all a nice day,

KD
