Best Answer

The physical size of a hard drive varies by the type of the computer it is placed in. Desktop hard drives are approximately 3.5" wide, and 1" high. Laptop drives are approximately 2.5" wide and 1/3" high. Capacity varies widely. In these modern size formats, you can typically find drives anywhere from 20 GB to 1.5 TB.
