Capacity and interface
This 250GB laptop internal hard drive uses a SATA 3.0Gb/s interface and a 2.5-inch form factor. It spins at 7200 RPM with a 16MB cache. The bare drive is built for non-mission-critical 24x7 applications in notebook PCs, external enclosures and compact systems.
Replaces 5400 RPM drives
The Z7K320 series delivers up to 18% better application performance than 5400 RPM models of the same capacity. It is designed as a direct replacement for standard 9.5mm hard drives using a one-disk, 320GB-per-platter design. Buyers who need higher capacities beyond 320GB or solid-state speed should consider other storage types.
Simple 2.5-inch SATA swap
Installation follows the standard 2.5-inch SATA drive procedure for notebooks and external caddies. The 7mm Z-height fits both slim and classic bays, though some older chassis may require a spacer for a secure mount. The bare drive ships without cables, brackets or cloning software, so have those ready if the system lacks spares.

Questions about this item
Will the 7 mm Z-height of this 2.5" drive fit my laptop's 9.5 mm bay?
The 7 mm height matches the thinner 9.5 mm bay used in many notebooks; a spacer may be required if your caddy expects the full 9.5 mm.
What is the correct SATA mode to select in BIOS when installing this 3.0 Gb/s drive?
Set the controller to AHCI or IDE emulation; the drive negotiates at 3.0 Gb/s automatically and does not need a jumper.
How often should I check SMART data on a 7200 RPM drive rated for 24x7 non-mission-critical use?
Review SMART attributes monthly; the 7200 RPM spindle and 24x7 rating mean wear accumulates steadily, so early reallocated-sector warnings are valuable.
