Yes it will work, but there will be no difference as its the same speed and capacity. I suggest a ssd as there much faster, not subject to shock, and use less power.

Hi there

 

To answer your question: yes, the WD Blue should work without any issues on your laptop and shouldn't encounter any problems or bottlenecks, as @Electronics Wizardy suggested.

 

Your laptop shouldn't have problems working with a SATA SSD and you should even see a great improvement in the overall performance, regardless if your laptop has a SATAII or SATAIII interface. There are no differences between installing a new HDD or a SSD in your system. They are placed the same way in the laptop and are seen the same way by the BIOS and the OS. You should, however, do a fresh install of your Operating System and of all applications and games with it. Then you can connect your old drive externally with a dock station, external enclosure or a simple SATA to USB cable  and then transfer the rest of your old data to the new drive, regardless if it's a SSD or a HDD.

 

Feel free to ask if there are any questions!
