Can I put a 2Tb hard drive on a Mac Mini?

I'm going to speed up my mid 2011 Mac Mini by installing a Samsung 850 EVO 250G SSD.
At the same time, I decided to upgrade the hard drive by replacing the native 500Gb HDD with a 2Tb WD Green Intellipower hard drive .
At first glance, everything is fine. Maybe there are some nuances? Advise if the specified HDD will fit the Mac Mini?

Be careful with sensors when disassembling. I managed to tear one away from the temperature, without it the poppy would not start. I gave it to a friend for soldering, everything seemed to be ok at first, and by evening the poppy died a heroic death. The service said that the motherboard died.
In general, the thing is capricious, in my opinion. I changed the thermal paste in laptops a dozen times, disassembling them to the screw, everything worked fine later, and then ...
