Laptop Hard drives

[FrenchTVR]

How can I find out if a Fujitsu 120Gb 2.5inch hard drive will fit in my Toshiba Satellite 1130? Are hard drives to a standard size format (physically)?

Cheers.

Standard 2.5" drives. Current ones use SATA drives, older laptops may use parallel. MacBooks have user replacable drives. All other Apple laptops of recent years do not have easily accessible drives. In these cases replacing the drive will void your warranty. Almost all use 9.5 height drives (some drives are taller).

Usually they are 2.5" with a 44 pin connector, or the newer ones are 1.8"
