Hi [MENTION=145143]SaiyanGoku[/MENTION],
For your information, mobile 2.5" drives with 7mm and 9.5mm thickness that we manufacture(WD Blue) go up to 1TB only. Larger capacity would be thicker, as with most other manufacturers.
For more information regarding the WD Blue HDD models, please refer the link below:

Hi [MENTION=159164]$hadow[/MENTION],
Thanks for your interest in WD Blue. You know, I'm not sure why by myself, but I've make sure to pass your question to our marketing and R&D division. I'm kind of curious myself too.

5400RPM? it should have been the same 7200RPM on these. i was going to buy a 1TB Blue in a day or two. saw this and thought of buying a 2TB version but then decided against it due to its lower speed as i will be installing OS on it. if required, i will get a backup drive later. i don't like this lower speed!
going from 2tb 5400rpm to 2tb 7200rpm is nothing compared to getting a ssd just as a system drive.almost all budget laptops comes with 5400rpm drives only & work reasonably well.in fact a clean & well maintained os on a 5400 rpm drive will be faster than a bloated os on a 7200 rpm drive.

Agreed, only if we get a 512GB SSD under 8k, laptops don't come with dual drive ports and no, not giving up the optical drive either.

They should include a M.2 port instead of dual drive ports to keep the laptop portable and fast enough.

[MENTION=293224]DK_WD[/MENTION], can a customer claim warranty on OEM drives like WD10JPVX if he has valid bill?
Hi [MENTION=145143]SaiyanGoku[/MENTION],
To check the possibility, you have to check the warranty of the product. For warranty check, you have to enter the product serial number In the WD portal.
Please refer to the link below for Warranty check:-

Based on my Knowledge, the Original Equipment Manufacturer hard drives are sold to OEM Computer manufacturers or Distributors in bulk packaging.
It may not contain a warranty from Western Digital. When Western Digital sells hard drives to OEM computer manufacturers such as HP, Compaq,acer, etc., we sell these drives without warranty. The OEM computer manufacturer would include the hard drive under the warranty of the computer system that the hard drive was installed into. For more information about hard drive warranties, please see our Warranty Policy.

In your case, I would suggest you to call our customer support team in India for further assistance on your matter.

Hi [MENTION=145143]SaiyanGoku[/MENTION],
As a WD representative, I'd recommend you to buy the product from WD store. As far as, we don't have a direct affiliation with retailer or distributors. In your case, I'd suggest you to check the local trusted online and PC hardware stores.

Tried that before posting the query. Nobody stocks 7mm laptop drives here. Can't even find it on flipkart, amazon, ebay, snapdeal, paytm, shopclues. And I know importing will nullify the price difference and leave me with no warranty.
Plus, seagate's 7mm drives offer only 500 GB at max
(in India).
