[REQUEST] Max HDD Height for Laptop?

[NviGate Systems]

I'm going to add another number to the mix just because I can.....12.5mm! In the early days some 1TB drives were 12.5MM but they were never really used in laptops much...and I think very few ever made mainstream.

Apparently Seagate is using that form factor again.

I just pulled a 1 TB HGST HDD from a HP laptop that has a plastic housing? It's also about the same weight as an SSD. Very light in other words....and also very thin.
Iv'e never seen on like this before.

Didn't know about 12.5, but enterprise 2.5" drives are either 12.5 or 15mm.
