CRITICAL COMPATIBILITY WARNING: 15mm HEIGHT

 

Please read this carefully BEFORE purchasing.

This is a 15mm thick hard drive. It is NOT a standard laptop drive.

• It WILL NOT fit inside a standard laptop (which use 7mm or 9.5mm drives).
• It WILL NOT fit inside a PlayStation 4 or PS5 console.

This drive is ONLY compatible with devices that have a drive bay specifically designed to accommodate a 15mm 2.5″ drive.

What It’s Good For

• External Enclosures: The #1 use. Perfect for putting inside a 15mm-compatible 2.5″ USB 3.0 enclosure to create a massive 5TB portable hard drive.
• All-in-One (AIO) PCs: Many AIO desktops use 2.5″ drive caddies that are large enough to fit a 15mm drive.
• Mini-PCs & SFF Builds: Ideal for custom small form-factor builds where space is tight but a 15mm height is supported.
• Media Storage / Backups: A great, low-cost drive for archiving large files.

Recommendation

This is a high-capacity, 15mm-thick specialty drive. Before buying, please measure your device’s drive bay.

For 99% of customers, we recommend this drive for one purpose: to be placed in an external USB enclosure. This turns it into a fantastic, high-capacity 5TB portable drive for your backups, movies, and game library.

Please ensure your external enclosure explicitly states it supports 15mm drive heights.
