Any SATA 2.5", 9.5 mm thick HDD will work in your MBP. I have good success with HGST and Seagate HDDs. Note that there will be cheerleaders and detractors for all of the various brands.

I suggest you go to the OWC web site and see the HDDs that they have to offer:

Also look at their installation videos and you should find that you can do this yourself:
