Solve : Replacing a Sata 2.5 HDD HP Compaq 3710b?

Answer»

I'm hoping to put a larger HDD in my laptop and just wanted to check if the speed 5400 or 7200 is important in other words if my EXISTING one runs at 5400 will I have to replace with another running  at the same speed?

I assume that I can FIT a slimmer HDD OK say 7mm rather than a 9.5mm but am I CORRECT in that assumption?

Any help gratefully RECEIVED.

 Yes...slimmer is no issue at all as once it's mounted it makes no difference...
As to the speeds you will see a bit of a performance increase with 7200 vs. 5400...
Nothing earth-shattering...but worth it. Quote from: patio on MARCH 29, 2015, 03:31:33 PM
