Hard drives come in two basic sizes: 3.5" and 2.5". Laptops use 2.5" drives. I can guarantee that the drive is not a 3.5" drive, because a 3.5" drive a) requires more power, b) is physically larger in all 3 dimensions than the external case of this drive. So it will be a 2.5" drive, which sounds like it would fit. HOWEVER. Seagate sell a 2 TB 2.5" internal drive for the same retail price as this one. If you go with Western Digital, you would save another $5. And you don't have to worry about breaking something while taking apart the drive enclosure.
