    hi

    I am thinking of getting new hdd for my TM3201..trying to get a faster model like hitachi travelstar. but the problem is that all the hdd i can find are 9.5mm thick while the one in my laptop is only 9.0mm thick...
    0.5 mm is not big difference but i just wanted to make sure if 9.5mm hdd is goning to fit well..

    by the way, i couldnt get my hdd replaced from acer. the guy i talked said he couldnt. but he worked out a deal with the online retailer which was ebuyer.com and refunded me $100..initially he said he could probably get me 15% back though. but i guess this is better deal than getting hdd swapped.

    I got the 7K60 in my 3201XCi and it works fine.
