Does anyone know if the Western Digital Scorpio Blue WD7500KEVT 750GB http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductReview.aspx?Item=N82E16822136414 can fit in a HP HDX16t and has anyone tried? I asked HP and just got a very generic answer.

Find out the exact model of your current hard drive
Look up it's dimensions
Check them against the WD750

It's a 2.5" drive, why would it not fit? Is there something special about that specific HP laptop?
-
-
open it up and look. if there's extra clearence then it should work.
-
-
it will fit only if you use it to replace your optical drive ..

I measured the HDD bay, I have betwen 12 and 13mm of space, it looks like it will fit. I wish I had 12.5mm HDD I could try in there before I bought the Western Digital one. So does anyone know where I can find 9.5mm 750GB to 1.5TB 2.5" SATA HDD's just to be safe?
-
There aren't any yet. The largest 9.5mm 2.5" drive currently is the WD 640 GB Scorpio Blue.
-
And Seagate and Toshiba also have 640GB 9.5mm drives.

Ah, missed that, although that's probably because all I ever hear about is the Scorpio Blue. XD
