    Question Did the hard drive failed?

    There are some files left on the old HDD but unfortunately, it cannot be accessed. I tried to do it via an external connector, it detects but can't open the drive. Managed to scan with HD tune and got a few errors if that helps.

    Question Did the hard drive failed?

    I took out the old drive and it's 'Toshiba mq01abf050' HDD. If Amazon says correctly then the 'Item Dimensions are 2.7 x 0.3 x 4 inches' I am wondering now how to find some Kingston or Samsung brand SSD drive (smallest in terms of storage), how do I know it will fit physically?
