Looking to replace the HDD, I believe the current 1tb drive I have is 7mm (according to a tape measure doh) but can it take a 9.5mm drive? I can't seem to find the specs anywhere! I have more experience with desktop machines so unfortunately laptop hardware is pretty new to me so I apologise if this is an obvious question

Thank you

Brilliant. Can't I believe I missed the user manual, or that I was so far out with the tape measure
Thank you Maké
