15mm height 2.5 HDD fit in 17 R4?
Will a 15mm high 2.5 HDD fit in an Alienware 17 R4? Looking at high capacity Seagate ST5000LM000 to replace the stock 1TB mag drive in the 2.5 bay, but the Seagate drive is 15mm tall.

Hi,
A 15mm drive will most likely not fit properly. If you manage to install it, it could cause alignment issues. We recommend using a drive not bigger than 9mm in height for this system.

Definitely too thick.
