Our take on the Dell 256GB Internal Solid State Drive A8528026

The Dell A8528026 is a 256GB 2.5-inch SATA solid state drive built on multi-level cell flash and a 6Gb/s SATA interface. It is a replacement or upgrade part for notebooks and desktops that take a standard 2.5-inch drive, and it is the kind of drive Dell fits as original equipment rather than a retail-branded performance model. Against current SATA SSDs it is a modest, older-generation part: MLC flash and SATA speeds are well behind NVMe drives, but it is a simple drop-in for machines without an M.2 slot. Buy it when you need a compatible Dell part number, not when you want the fastest drive.

Questions and answers

Will this fit my laptop?
It is a 2.5-inch, 7mm-class SATA drive, so it fits notebooks and desktops with a standard 2.5-inch SATA bay. Check your machine's drive bay and connector before buying; slim models that use M.2 only will not take it.
Is it faster than the hard drive it replaces?
Yes. Any SATA SSD is much faster than a spinning hard drive for boot times, app loading and file transfers. It is not faster than an NVMe drive, which uses a different slot.
Does it work in a desktop?
Yes, as long as the desktop has a free 2.5-inch bay or mounting point and a SATA data and power cable. The listing names notebooks, but the form factor and interface are standard.
Is 256GB enough?
It is fine for an operating system, office apps and a moderate photo or music library. It is tight for large game installs or video editing; plan on external or secondary storage for those.
What comes in the box?
The drive itself, sold as a single retail-packaged unit. Cables, mounting screws and cloning software are not included, so reuse the ones from your machine.
Is it worth it over a cheaper SATA SSD?
You pay for the exact Dell part number and MLC flash rather than speed. If compatibility with a Dell service tag matters, it is the safer match; otherwise a current SATA SSD offers similar real-world speed.
Where is the Dell 256GB Internal Solid State Drive A8528026 cheapest?
