Hi,

I just got a M4700. I was wondering if anybody has swapped the stock Toshiba HDD with Crucial C300 SSD? The stock caddy seems to be blocking the pins on the C300.

Thank you for your help.

 

Make sure you didn't install the drive upside down. The stock caddy should work with any standard 2.5" drive. If you sit the two drives side-by-side you should see that the connector layouts are positioned identically.

Probably better to use the M4700 owner's thread, this one has been dead for 10 months.

 

The location of the SATA connector as well as the form factor of the drives are standardized, it should fit perfectly. I have replaced the drives in my M6700 without any issues at all, the caddy for the M4700 is identical...
