Knock yourself out!

If there isn't a listing specifically for the notebook model you want to use, you can search for component-level compatibility. But beware the fact that components are often customized for use in notebooks by the OEM.

BTW, if you use a search engine combining the make and model of the notebook and the word "linux" you may very well find step-by-step instructions posted somewhere for your particular notebook.
