what's the thickness of the 240GB drive, 7mm or 9.5mm?

I believe that it is a 9.5, but it fit in my mx11 so I'm not entirely certain.

Ignore the other answer. The drive will fit fine. Any drive that does not exceed 9.5mm will work. The drive is compatible, just make sure it is formatted correctly

According to the spec sheet, it's 7mm. The reseller kit also comes with a plastic spacer to make it thicker.

The correct length would be 11.5 . I checked on gigabyte's website and mine doesn't look anything like 15.9!

It depends on the thickness of the bay. Some ultrabooks need a thinner drive.

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.

This is a thin (7mm) SSD that will work anywhere a normal 2.5" spinning HDD will work - and that describes almost any laptop. If you're replacing a 9mm drive you might need a small soft shim cut to the shape of the drive, to make sure the physical fit is snug enough so it won't rattle around. The SSD can be formatted as needed, and can be used with any popular OS. Plug it in, format (if needed) and go. I put mine in an Acer Chromebook and restored back the ChromeOS - without formatting - in a few minutes time, with excellent results. Nice speed pickup. Very pleased!

I know this is an old question, but if it helps in the future for someone else it's worth answering. Some laptops will only accept a 9mm thick drive. Some will take 11mm or more. That's the only question to keep in mind with almost any laptop or mini desktop. It's also valid for any SATA drive. You can google your models tech specs or speak with a technician.

I've used it with a 840 EVO-Series 500GB SSD and a Crucial MX100 512GB SSD, both 7 mm thick. I did have a 2.5 inch Toshiba HDD in one, but I'm pretty sure that was about 9mm.

The one I have is for 3.5", Data capacity is 720KB, 1.25MB, 1.44MB (Formatted). Have not found a drive for the 5.25" disk yet myself.

Not sure what a 12.5 mm drive is but if the drive is 12.5 mm (1/2") thick, no.. The whole unit is about 9mm (3/8") thick

I bought these: HGST Travelstar 7K1000 2.5-Inch 1TB 7200 RPM SATA III 32MB Cache Internal Hard Drive 0J22423. The fastest, largest drive I could find that fits the 9mm height limit. Be careful of the model; HGST makes other models at lower speed, etc.

Todd, your question got me up and away from my computer so I could dig out a set of calipers from my workshop! Anyway, by actual measurement the diameter of the cable is 7/32". You didn't indicate why you wanted that particular measurement. If it is to help decide the current carrying capability of the cable, that's a pretty poor measurement to use (how much is insulation and how much is copper?) If, however, you're trying to somehow thread the cable through a tight opening, you're on better ground, but then you have to consider the width of one or both of the connectors on either end of the cable. I bought the cable to supplant the dinky little cable which came with the drive. When working on PC's, most often it seems the USB port you want is more than arm's length away from where you can put the physical drive. The six foot USB 3.0 cable solves that problem nicely, and the current carrying capacity of the cable seems to be sufficient to power the drive. IHTH

I don't know, but you can look up the drive specifications on the Western Digital website.

YES if you modify the 7 mm SSD. NO if you don't. The reason is that the internal eject lever is not wide enough to push a 7mm SSD out of the enclosure. This is a design flaw in an otherwise fabulous case. This is why it is advertised to fit only 9 mm and 12 mm drives. THE SOLUTION is to apply a strip of 3M Scotch Heavy Duty Mounting Tape, Clear (4010) to the top edge of the SSD that enters the case. The mounting tape is a solid and clear piece of thick double-stick tape. This thickens the SSD by about 2 mm - enough to be ejected by the internal lever when you open the enclosure.

I got total 223.57GB shows on windows 7 disk manager. For reference, my Samsung MZ-7TD250BW 840 bought 2 years back shows 232.88GB.

probably not, it's slightly thicker than a normal 2.5" HDD. I wouldn't suggest buying one anyway. I had 2 fail on me virtually out of the box.
