    OK Thanks. I already have a guide on cracking the case. Upon further instpection though, I think I can't use the Sandisk I want as it is a SATA III and the drive I'll be replacing is SATA. Don't think they are compatible. I have been researching the laptop but can't find any info on if the SATA port in the laptop will support SATA III.
