Vertex 2 height?

[Drag0nFireMage]

Hi all,

I'm looking to buy an SSD for a Lenovo T420s. The laptop has a "slim" 2.5in HDD bay that is only 7mm high. I know Intel SSDs come with a spacer which, if removed, yields a height of 7mm.

Does anyone know how tall the Vertex 2 is? Can it fit in a 7mm tall bay?

Thanks!

I just measured mine. .360 in = 9.144 mm

Ok, thanks so much! Guess it won't fit...

In case anyone else is interested, I was thinking about this deal:

$310 for Vertex 2 240GB

Just be careful because if you get the new 25nm version it will be 1/2 the speed of the original.

I'm not sure that it affects the 240gb drives though, plus OCZ will RMA you a faster one if you want.
