Thin 7 mm laptop drive

The Seagate Momentus Thin ST160LT007 is a 160 GB 2.5 inch internal hard drive built for notebooks that require a 7 mm z-height. It spins at 7200 RPM with a 16 MB cache and connects through a SATA 3.0 Gb/s interface. The bare-drive unit suits repair technicians or owners upgrading older laptops.

Straightforward SATA swap

Installation follows the standard 2.5 inch SATA drive procedure: secure the drive in the bay, attach the data and power connectors, then initialise the volume in the operating system. The 7 mm height fits both 7 mm and 9.5 mm drive bays without spacers. No special drivers or firmware steps are required.

Check bay height and connector

Verify that the laptop uses a 2.5 inch SATA drive bay and accepts a 7 mm or 9.5 mm thick drive. Confirm the system BIOS supports SATA 3.0 Gb/s devices and that a free SATA data header and power lead are available. The bare drive ships without mounting brackets, screws or cloning software.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the ST160LT007 is running at 7200 RPM after installation?

Use a tool such as CrystalDiskInfo or the SMART data viewer in your BIOS to verify the rotational speed shows 7200 RPM and the SATA link reports 3.0Gb/s.

What comes with the bare-drive ST160LT007 and what must I supply?

The package contains only the 2.5-inch 7mm drive. You must provide a SATA data cable, a SATA power connection, and any mounting bracket or screws your laptop requires.

Which capacity of the Momentus Thin series should I choose for a 7mm bay?

This model is the 160GB version; select it if you need that exact capacity in a 7mm-high 2.5-inch form factor.
