Replace MacBook Pro hard drive
Attached is a photo of my MacBook Pro hard drive which has gone bad. I assume I can find a replacement online or on eBay or something. What exactly must I search for to make sure I buy something that is compatible with the laptop?
Also, some online tutorials say that after removing the hard drive case from the laptop (which pops right out after removing two Philips screws), I have to further remove the "inside" part using a Torx T6 screwdriver. Is that true, or will a replacement come with the entire piece that I already removed?
Thank you!

What has to be removed using the Torx 6 screwdriver is the four mounting posts on the side of the drive.
Got it, only saw that after I posted my reply.
