I have a Samsung rv509 laptop with the same wd blue scorpio bad sector hdd, but the model number is WD5000BEVT-35A0RT0. This type will fit in?

Laptops use a 2.5" width hard disk drive; I don't recall any that use the 3.5" form factor. Having said that, the manufacturer of laptops (or netbooks) uses HDD from various suppliers. We had an ACER with a defective OEM Hitachi drive, and replaced it with the Scorpio. No issues at all. You shouldn't have any problems whatsoever.

The BEVT is listed in that forum thread as being a nonAFT drive so yes it should work. Good luck!

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

I don't believe it will fit. Try the 2nd Hard Drive Caddy DELL E6400, E6500, E6410, E6510 Modular Bay (original Newmodeus), also sold by Amazon.

Sorry, not familiar with the Samsung. What I can tell you is that I've had the WD Blue HD installed for the past 6 mos. and its worked well in my HP...maybe a little slower than the original 640 GB but still can't beat the price. Good luck.

No. This is an enterprise drive designed for servers with small form factor drive bays as are all of the Constellation 2.5" drives. This drive has a SAS (serial attached SCSI) interface and must be attached to a SAS controller (SATA will NOT work). Constellation 2.5" drives (SAS and SATA) are much too thick to fit in a laptop - about twice the height of typical SATA laptop drives.

I don't know, but here are the more specific questions you should be asking:1. Will it fit correctly? There are two different sizes of 2.5" HDDs (normal & slim)2. Does the laptop support SATA II?3. Do you have the restore disks to reinstall everything? (Not specific to this HDD)

It will work if you are replacing your existing HDD with the WD 500GB HDD, since your laptop already have a 2.5 inch HDD

I have no idea other than to say it likely is. Check the specs on your existing drive, and if they're similar, I'd get it. It's a very good, fast and seemingly reliable drive. Easy to install. Do not buy the WD!

I don't think they HAVE to be identical, but I think it is good policy to at least make sure that they are all the same size. The smallest disk in the set will cause the system to ignore any space on other volumes that go beyond that smaller size. To stick a 500GB drive in a box that has three other larger drives should give you a 2 TB box (4 X 500). Seagate might be unhappy about this, but if you stick a WD drive in their box the system should be able to make it go. The drive is compatible with SATA or it isn't, right? Warranty is another matter. That WD drive would almost certainly void your waranty. But if the box is under warranty, they should give you the correct replacement drive,

Steve, that sounds like a standard 3.5" Form Factor akin to the Seagate ST500NM0001, whose dimensions are 5.78x4.010x1.028 then it should work just fine. If you can find the model number on the drive, it would make it easier to check for sure.

You need to check the part# carefully. These DVD slim drives all look similar BUT they are not the same depending on height. Go to the Lenovo website, under support, follow the instruction and find out the part#. Then search on Amazon to buy.

Georgi, To my understanding the WD3200BEVT-22A23T0 is a 2.5" SATA drive. The enclosure is designed to fit any 2.5" SATA drive. I am using it with a WD Scorpio 2.5" Sata that I removed from my laptop after upgrading to an SSD. It should work just fine. Gabriel Labbad

hello, look at the packaging says it's fit for that HD, I buy a WDBY8L and the packaging says it is not compatible with the HD though fits perfectly

"Support current model 3TB hard drives"This is according to the manufacturer's website: http://www.cavalrystorage.com/en-cahdd-u3c.aspx

This drive should fit, however the dimensions are slightly larger than the stock drive that shipped with your laptop. Your drive dimensions are 2.75" (W) X 0.37" (H) X 3.94" (D), the dimensions of the Samsung drive are 2.8" (W) X 0.4" (H) X 4" (D).

im not sure. the way i figured it out was watching youtube videos. i know there is an easy way to tell which drive you need, but i can't remember. good luck. also i know that the is a piece of the old drive you will need to unsolder from the original and solder into the new unit.

I gave you the dimensions of my 2TB portable HDD, which fits perfectly. Should fit yours as well.
