    Hello,

    I am planning to buy a 500 GB (this model : http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822145257) for my Dell XPS m1530. I've read that these hard drives are a bit thicker than normal laptop hard drives and that it might not fit in all laptops. Is this the case for the m1530 ? My current hard drive is a Fujitsu 160GB 7200RPM model.

    Thanks

    I've got the 'B' version and it fits correctly in my M1330. It is 9.5 mm.
