It's this hard drive compatible with the Dell XPS 8500? I would like to use it as my main hard drive since the one I had went dead.

I don't see why it wouldn't be. BUT I would suggest a 2tb WD Black instead. Windows defaults to an MBR storage format which I KY supports up to 2.2tb. You can't even partition the other 800gb into another drive. You can change the format to GPT which would allow you to use all 3tb, but it's a pain in the butt and if this will be your only storage drive I would steer clear of doing that. Quick summary: A WD Black should work no problem, but I'd personally go with a 2tb version. Hope this helps!

I installed one of these on my home computer, and all I had to do was make sure I had the driver installed from the manufacturer. (i.e. Dell)

I really am not sure. I have a Dell and I did install it as second hard drive and it works. I am not sure of model.

Hi Crosby, The S200 mSATA drive is compatible and recommended for the Dell XPS 13 L321X laptop. Thank you for choosing Kingston as your upgrade partner! -Jewel, Kingston US Technical Support

It works the same as if the drive was in the laptop, has to be one of the older Dell laptops. Plus, it requires a docking station that has the double plug connection on its side. Check Dell's website for Specs/compatability.

I don't think so. Your Dell XPS 8700 should have extra cable for you to install a 2nd hard drive.

I bought it for grandson, and I installed it in a Dell, but that was at least 2 years ago. I don't remember his model number and it was probably a Win XP. I was concerned about the PSU which was 300 if I remember, but after reading that Dell PSU are sturdy we gave it a try and it's still running.. So as long as you have an empty slot it should do fine.

I did not try it for that purpose as I was more interested in cloning a big drive on my PC. I believe this would be an excellent drive for backing up your Dell files. I had connected it to a Dell Latitude 630 and that laptop recognized it immediately. Richard Chay

I used a 160 GB Serial ATA (SATA) Hard Drive that I removed from an old Dell computer. It works fine.

I don't know the answer, I would suggest Dell should answer that. Or look for a model that has native solid state drive.

go to the dell support site and put in the info of this memory to see if it"s compatible with your machine check with dell first to see if it"s the right memory. I hope that I help you out with this info.

I am not sure about your dell because I used mine for a mac. These hard drives are universal but you might want to call Best Buy or Dell to make sure it will fit. Also I had a friend do a data transfer from one hard drive to another. I am not sure where to send you for that one but I would recomend just save all the stuff you need on to an exteranal drive. Then once one you replace the hard drive, you might have to redownload the programs you need. The thing to remember is the hard drive is blank so you might need to set up a data transfer. I tried to do it myself and my computer was blank. So you might want to look around and ask some Tech guys how to do this. Thanks. GOod luck

The Dell XPS 410 that has Core 2 Duo generation of processors uses SATA drives, so yes, this internal drive would work.

Yes, this will work. Western Digital Black drives are some of the most reliable drives that I've encountered. It's only 9.5mm thick and should physically fit in any laptop with sata interface. Also, just because your Dell came with a 320gb drive, you are not limited to this size. The 500 and 750gb version of this drive will also work (any 2.5" sata drive including solid state drives that aren't over 9.5mm thick) will work. If you are going to image (clone) your existing drive to this one, you'll need a docking station or other usb interface.

This drive is designed for laptops with a 1.8 hard drive bay. The Dell XT2 has a 1.8 bay. There should be no issues when switching to this SSD. I have done this just recently with an HE Elite book tablet.

No, it is not compatible with the Dell XPS 15 L521X. It has an mSATA slot, not the M.2 slot (previously known as NGFF).

The descrpition for the CD drive includes Dell 15** models. The CD drive should fit. Just compare it to the one you remove. Hope this helps. The CD drive should be returnable. I hope this helps.

I used this is in a Dell Studio XPS desktop, and have it placed on the HDD slot so it lays in there but its not snug or secure. I do not plan on moving the desktop much but if I do I will remove it and use something to secure it in the housing better. I believe it can be used to replace a laptop HDD because of its small size.Other comments seem to have a better grasp on this concept than myself :)
