I'm thinking about getting a new hard drive for my laptop, but I'm not certain it will fit. I have an Asus M51S (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220308) and it needs to last me another couple years, so I'm looking to get a drive as large as possible. I measured the hdd bay and its only about 7mm high, so the 12.5mm 1tb drives definitely won't fit. I was looking at some of the 750gb drives and some said they were 9.5mm high while others said they were "standard 2.5" form factor." Does this mean they will fit? Or is it commonplace that 750gb drives are all 9.5mm?
I'm looking at

specifically, though I'm open to suggestions. It doesn't say if it is 9.5mm or not, and I haven't been able to find anything out about it. If anyone knows about this kind of thing, that would be really helpful.
