Look at p. 4-8 of the Service Manual here:
You can install any 7mm or 9.5 mm thick SATA 2.5 inch wide hard drive or solid state drive. If you are sensing that your drive is slow you are right. It is a slow 5400 rpm model, so if you want more speed you need to consider a solid state drive or at least a 7200 rpm hard drive. The solid state drive is going to be more expensive but their prices have come way down lately. Nobody is replacing hard drives with another mechanical hard drive these days. Old school spinning mechanical hard drives are going the way of the floppy drive and soon you will not find them in anything but the lowest end junk computers. A solid state drive gives a whole new, much better computing experience.
500 gig SSD:
1 TB 7200 rpm hard drive:
Post back with any more questions and please accept as solution if its the info you needed.
