Refurbished 750GB 2.5" SATA laptop drive
This refurbished Western Digital Scorpio Blue WD7500KEVT provides 750GB of storage in a 2.5 inch form factor. It connects via a SATA 3.0Gb/s interface and spins at 5200 RPM with an 8MB cache. The drive measures 12.5 mm in height.
Suits older notebooks with 12.5mm bays.
This drive fits legacy notebooks that accommodate a 12.5 mm drive height. Buyers upgrading ultra-thin laptops or modern compact systems requiring slimmer drives cannot use this model. Always verify the maximum allowable drive height in your system specifications before purchase.
12.5 mm drive height determines installation
The critical specification is the 12.5 mm physical height. Many newer notebooks only accept 7mm or thinner drives, making this unit incompatible with those chassis. Consult your device manual to confirm the drive bay clearance matches this dimension.
