Laptop has 9.6V battery the one I ordered is 14.8V can I use it? Will it fry the hard drive? If it is safe do I just slide the old one out and new in?
 
Solution
The battery you have is a nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) at 9.6 volts, you can replace with a lithium-ion (Li-ion) at 14.8 volts without problem.
For reference read page 87 in your Owner's Manual.
