- Will this fit my laptop?
- It is a 2.5-inch drive that is 7mm thick, so it fits most laptops with a standard 2.5-inch SATA bay. Check that your machine takes a 2.5-inch drive rather than an M.2 slot.
- Is it faster than the hard drive it replaces?
- Yes. Any SATA SSD cuts boot and load times sharply compared with a spinning 2.5-inch hard drive. Against current SATA SSDs, though, this older MLC drive is on the slow side.
- Is 128GB enough?
- It suits a light Windows install, office files and a few apps. Games, photo libraries and video work will fill it quickly.
- Does it work in non-Dell computers?
- Yes. It is a standard SATA 6Gb/s 2.5-inch drive, so it works in any machine with a compatible bay. The Dell part number only matters if you want an exact match for a Dell service replacement.
- What is in the box?
- The drive only. No cables, screws, caddy or cloning software are included.
- Is MLC better than TLC?
- MLC generally endures more write cycles per cell than TLC. This drive is still rated consumer/value endurance, so the advantage is modest at this capacity.
