What hard drive size for Acer X1800 desktop?

[BernieDD]

No, not the drive capacity but the physical size of the drive itself. Is it a standard 3.5" or a smaller hard disk normally used for laptops? TIA

Posting a link to the specs would be a good idea so that anyone reading your question doesn't have to do it

Do you have access to the machine so you can open the case and look? All the slim cases I've ever worked on use a standard size 3½ drive.

OK, here's a link to the general specs.

No, I don't have access to it yet. I'm going to do it for a friend. I have to advise him what hard drive to buy first before I go over to his place.

Hard Drive1-> Serial ATA hard disk up to 1 TB

That's not really enough to know with 100% certainty, But, I wouldn't hesitate to get a standard 3½ inch drive.
