Is the 5TB Seagate 2.5" drive compatible with MSI Trident 3?

Hello, I just purchased a 2.5-inch 5TB Seagate hard drive with a height of 1.5 cm, and I have an MSI Trident 3. Can my PC accommodate the drive without any issues (I'm concerned about the thickness of the drive which seems a bit large)?

I also need to buy a graphics card, but the one I'm looking for (GTX GeForce Nvidia 1650 Aero ITX MSI) is no longer available on any site... is it possible to order one directly from the supplier, and if so, could the price skyrocket????

    It seems that this PC only has one 2.5" bay and it is already occupied. It doesn't even have a 3.5" bay that you could use with a 3.5"/2.5" converter. If that's true, the solution would be to use an external SATA/USB enclosure.

      I plan to replace the old disk with the one I just bought, but does the Seagate fit in the bracket of the old disk (remember my old disk was 0.7 cm thick...) ?

      P.S.: I logged in, but the first message is mine, sorry...

        If that's the case, it will be possible.
