Will this drive work in a Desktop PC?

Yes but you would have to by a 2.5 inch to 3.5 inch drive adapter to bolt it in.Bill

Yes, but be aware it uses a SATA connector not an ATA connector. Also mine did not come with any kind of mounting kit or screws, just the hard drive. I had to use extra screws I had left over from when I bought my PC case.

It works perfect on desktop but you need SSD adapter mount that fits into extra bay or slot.

Absolutely. I mounted him inside a standard HD bay using some screws and little rubber feet. Connects in 10 seconds using standard SATA data connection and standard power. You may want to get some adapter rails to mount it inside your HD bay.

I'm using mine in my desktop. You might want a spacer to make it fit in your bays better. But it will work in my desktop (presuming you've got a sata data connector, (and sata power, but that's available with adapters)

I have not tried it, but it should be fine. It doesn't care what SATA drive you plug in really, it's up to the OS to figure that out anyway.

it will work if this statement in the advertisement is true:"Supports Standard Desktop 3.5-Inch SATA or IDE Desktop Hard Drives"

Don't know - sorry - I am using mine as an external (e-sata) attached to a desktop.

They will. Or at least it is said on the box that they will. I have only used desktop drives and it works great. I have a lot of old drives with good stuff on them that now I can use and modify without having to physically install the drive into my tower. You plug them in like Atari Cartridges and it works like a external hard drive. totally worth the money.

The size of the drive makes no difference. As long as it has a SATA or even an old IDE connector it should work. You may not achieve peak performance specs with such setup but at least you can read/write the data off the drive.

It will only work if you currently have a SATA hard drive in your desktop. Also assuming the hard drive in your desktop is 3.5 inch, you will need a 2.5 inch to 3.5 inch adapter.

This Drive is compatible with laptops. It can be used in a desktop PC, but it would require mounting hardware as well. The PC in question must be SATA drive capable.

I don't think so. The enclosure is meant for using in desktops that usually only hold regular non-solid state drives. Usually, but double check, a solid state drive works in a laptop with the laptop's own set up.

If it is a desktop it will. I dont see why it shouldnt. This works like any other harddrive but faster and with less space than most common harddrives nowdays

It should work in your desktop just fine. However, it does not come with a hard drive mounting bracket. You'll need to get one separately. That said, however, the one I got had problems with the screw holes on the bracket not lining up with the drive. So you may want to go to a local store to get that just in case.

This HD will not fit in a laptop. it is too large physically and the plugs are wrong. It is designed for a desktop and will not work in older desktops which use the wide data cables. It is a SATA drive not an IDE drive. I replaced a HD in a Win 7 desktop and it worked great.

If you have this drive installed in your pc with the drive utility software there should not be a problem. What type of motherboard and CPU are you using?

The Windows version is not the problem. Your computer must hook up to this sort of drive. If it does, this will work

Maybe. The form factor is ok, but I don't know, if this system can use the drive.
