[SOLVED] Seagate 2.5" Barracuda 4TB HDD won't fit Lenovo E440

[iamfbpt]

I bought a Seagate 2.5" Barracuda 4TB ST4000LM024 SATA 6Gb/s 5400rpm 15mm Notebook Hard Disk for my Lenovo E440 laptop, but when the HDD arrived, it won't fit in.

Is there any enclosure for the HDD that I can easily remove by loosing up screws? I thought any 2.5'' HDD would fit any laptop.

Please, help me, I really want to install this.

2.5" drives have different dimensions. 15mm height drives are not usually meant for laptops.

No way you will be able to install 15mm HDD in this laptop.

You need to measure the hight of your old HDD and buy the same hight new one.

That drive will not fit into that laptop.
15mm is larger than 9.5mm.
