What hard drive?

Hi guys. I've been looking for a new hdd and have come across something called *advanced format drives*. I have no idea what this is or how to understand it so my question is, will a *advanced format* drive work in my mid 2010 MacBook Pro 13" 2.4ghz without any problems? Thanks

MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)

I have no idea what an 'advanced format drive ' is. I do know that any SATA HDD or SSD will be compatible with your MBP. Here is a sample of compatible drives from OWC:

Post the article that offers these 'advanced format' drives and we may be able to determine if it is advertising hype or something else.


Ciao.
