If what you are asking is if you can put an IBM laptop drive into a Toshiba laptop or viceversa, Then yes, as long as both interfaces are the same. You should have no problems. Drives even laptop drives aren't proprietary. So either drive should work in either machine. Except Windows will most likely not boot as it wont take kindly to all the hardware changes between one and the other.

But from a striclty hardware point of view, yes it should work.
