Thanks for the offer. More seriously I don't believe there are any 7mm 4TB drives out there - if anybody thinks or knows otherwise, please let me know.

I've got a planer. We can try to get that 15mm down to a 7mm.

I realised that after I posted - it was meant to be the 2.5" drive. However further research shows that the laptop requires a 7mm drive and will not accept the 15mm drive. Have to start looking again ...
Thanks wOOdy

Hi all
Please note my change of address - as a result of recently being made redundant. I have recently taken delivery of an HP Omen 17" laptop. I
am
used to having an ethernet port which accepts what I would call a
standard
Cat5 plug but the port on the new laptop does not accept that plug
which
is
obviously too big. The manual describes the port as RJ-45 (network)
jack.
What would I need in order to connect my Cat5 plug into the RJ-45
socket?
The new laptop has a 512GB SSD and a 1TB HDD. The only info I have
about
the 1TB drive is that it is 7200rpm. Can I simply replace it with a
4TB
model running at 5400RPM? The new HDD (WD Red 3.5" Internal Hard
Drive)
has a
- SATA III 6 Gb/s interface. Would I need to check that for
compatibility?
Many thanks
Paul Newton
