Any 2.5 inch wide and 7 or 9.5 mm thick laptop hard drive will work. To assure that your recovery kits will work get a drive at least as large in capacity; i.e. 750 gig or larger. 

 

The WD 1 TB you ask about will work. You might consider upgrading to a 7200 rpm drive or even a solid state drive to improve performance.
