The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    It will work since it has the right height and a SATA connector but I'm not sure about the bezel replacement.

    Most all faceplates are generic on the slim drives. IE: They pretty much all mount the same but the actual face can be different. Just be gentle when you remove it as the tabs are extremely fragile. I would remove the one on the new drive first. That will give you an idea as to how it comes off.
