    My wife has a Dell E1705 and needs more onboard storage. Can anyone fill me in out what will work? I am assuming a SATA 3.0 will work but I read one place that it has to be the 9.5mm form factor as 12.5mm will be to thick. What is the best choice, keeping in mind that I want a 7200rpm drive? Thanks!

    Any 2.5" 9.5mm SATA hard drive should work.
