Upgrading MBP HDD to 1TB

[finalcut]

Hello everyone,

I tried searching for an answer on my question but no luck.
I want to change my 320GB HDD to the WD 1TB green edition.
I'm kinda stuck since a lot saying 12.5mm is too thick and only 9mm HDD will fit in the bay.

I want to make sure it fits before buying "online only"

will it fit?

hmm just realized it's the blue edition and not the greed one. But why are you saying it looks small?

 

[maker]

Because you said it's 1GB lol

You know what I meant, 1TB

I was going to post "that's a downgrade, not an upgrade", but didn't sound that funny after all... :/

If its for the unibody, it'll fit. If it's the older Macbook Pros, only the 17" will fit.

That's a really low price for a terabyte.

I know it says it's a 2.5" drive, but I have a feeling it's a typo and that it's for a desktop. But I may be wrong and this may be a really good deal.

It's listed under the desktop category in that link.

If someone can confirm it'll fit into the 13" MacBook Pro. I'll buy two and swap out my optical.

Definitely a 3.5, 4 platters.....

It's a desktop drive. The laptop drives are:

WD10TPVT models.

I have one installed in my Core Duo MacBook Pro right now.
