I'm thinking about buying a Intel 320 Series 600 GB drive for my MacBook Pro. I can't figure out if the model -- SSDSA2CW600G3B5 -- is 7.0mm or 9.5mm thick. The data sheet says it might be one of three sizes; 1.8 inches at 5.0mm thick, 2.5 inches at 7.0mm thick, or 2.5 inches at 9.5mm thick.

Which is which?
 
I found a selection guide that lays it out:

SSDSA2CW600G310 - 9.5mm OEM
SSDSA2CW600G3B5 - 9.5mm Retail
SSDSA2CW600G3K5 - 9.5mm Reseller
SSDSA2BW600G301 - 7.0mm OEM

In the part numbers, C means 9.5mm, B means 7.0mm, and N means 5.0mm.
 
As far as I know, the 7mm spacerless models are only available as OEM drive -- which means they have 1, not 5 year warranties. Only the retail packaged 320's have 5 year warranties, and they don't retail package the 7mm units... and that sucks.
