Can you tell me how many pens I have in my pocket
 Would be helpful to know which laptop you have  More than likly it's a standard 2½ drive that will fit in most laptops that use 2½ drives.

Probably. Most laptops these days use 9.5mm thick drives. 12.7mm drives might work, depends on the carrier each one uses. A 9.5mm drive will fit in a 12.7mm carrier.

And not every laptop has a removable harddrive bay. Many are built-in.

And, you'll have to re-install the operating system and all applications.
