I have had three machines which are working well all of which have had at least one - and for my current machine, probably one per week - hard disk change. My feeling is that the risk involved in changing to a 9.5mm disk - provided the spacers are properly removed and normal care is taken - is probably less than the risk of tripping over the power cable and pulling the lib off a table.
