Macbook bigger HD

[Flameout]

What are the dimensions (in mm) and any other constraints I need to be aware of when buying a 160GB or 250GB hard drive for my macbook?

Can anyone recommend particular drives and where to get them in the UK

Thanks

I believe Macbooks use the same form factor as any other laptop, a 2.5" hard drive (compared to a 3.5" for desktop computers). Even in the UK, they should be marketed as 2.5" hard drives.

Exactly, there are apparently some thicker 2.5" drives (like the 320GB ones) that wouldn't fit in the MacBook or MacBook Pros. But anything lower in capacity than that should fit just fine.
