Yes, the unibody MBPs support 12.5mm drives.

I was looking at that drive. But I wish it was a 2TB drive. I would give my right lung for a 2TB laptop sized drive. I really hope science is able to get that done soon. It would be a dream.

Just installed one of these tonight in a brand new i7 17" unibody that I grabbed from the Apple Store on the way home from the airport. Seems to be working without any hiccups so far... but more importantly it fit just fine with no issues during the install.
A couple MacPro's, a MacBook Pro, a PC, and an iPod.
