(no optical drive, but theres a slot for a 2nd HDD inside the laptop for SSD)




I use my laptop for School and Gaming.
I was looking on amazon and found this SSD (120G)

http://www.amazon.com/Kingston-HyperX-2-5-Inch-SH103S3-120G/dp/B007R67FNA/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1378657706&sr=8-2&keywords=ssd

The question is: does this SSD Match with my laptop?
And if anyone think that a other SSD that suits me better.

Virtually all laptop drives will be 2.5"
But, a SSD can come in 7mm or 9mm in height.
Depending on the laptop one or the other size would be appropriate, and sometimes even both sizes will fit.

Do some google work using your particular laptop model and SSD as arguments to see what is possible.
