    No. However, if you retrofit the older HDD that came with your laptop and if it fails, I think you have to re-install it and treat it as part of the entire system to get a replacement for the drive.

    That also means the original HDD has no warranty outside your laptop, like aftermarket OEM and retail drives do.
