500GB Drive Inspiron E1505 E1705 Review

This hard drive STILL works perfectly. This is a replacement for the exact same hard drive model # in my Dell P25t and the price was surprisingly low. I'm wondering if this one will hold up better than the previous one that came with my laptop which only lasted 15 months. We will see. It's easy to install, but it might be more due to the design of my laptop since all these hard drives have the same connectors. Dell has an online utility that allows you to transfer the operating system to a new…

I bought this hard drive because I was told that any 2.5" SATA hard drive would work in my Dell Inspiron N5050, but this one didn't work for me works no matter what methods I've tried.</p>

I just bought it for my Dell Inspiron 1440 computer There are a few things to consider: 1.

Contrary to the product description on Amazon, the hard drive sent to me is not compatible with my Dell Inspiron 1545. After installation, I received an error message that the hard drive was not found and advised me to reinstall the device. Reinstalling did not fix the problem. It turned out that the hard drive I ordered was not the right size for my computer, which requires a 9.5mm hard drive, not the 7mm ("slim") drive I received . There is no indication of the size of the item in the product

I made the mistake of picking this one after asking Amazon to show all the drives for the Dell 5570. This one came up and I chose it without careful consideration. Once installed, the test shows I have the correct drivers and the drive is working properly, but it still shows as unidentified. Revain needs to work harder on the quest. I don't blame the seller. I'm sticking with it as it's too much of a hassle to uninstall and install another one. I use an SSD and prefer it.

Very well protected on the back like 3 covers. I am so grateful. The item was very complete and perfectly fixed on my Dell laptop. They sent me the item in about 3 days which was so fast, shipped and received on Sunday which was perfect for the weekend and I didn't have to wait until Monday or any other day! My husband installed this product and then had to buy the operating system online which only cost 20.00. Youtube gives you instructions on how to install a hard drive and how to install the

Two useful tips for Vista users. I upgraded my Dell Inspiron 1501 Vista hard drive. I used free cloning software "Easeus" to clone my hard drive to a new hard drive. The new hard drive did not boot. I noticed that the drive letters assigned to the cloned hard drive are different from my C and D drives on the original hard drive. I searched and searched and finally found a thread on the Easeus site that stated that you cannot access the new drive or even the old drive after cloning. Shut down…

I am so glad I bought this hard drive. I haven't been able to use my laptop for 2 years. I've had many people try to fix it but it just didn't work. In all honesty, it takes about 45 minutes for the laptop to turn on, and then it says it can't find a problem to fix, so it turns itself off again. I ended up just putting it in the corner of my room and forgot about it until the other day when I saw the front panel light come on because it was plugged in to the mains. So I thought I'd give it…

I liked it, affordable, not the newest but it works! I bought this to replace a drive in a Dell Inspiron 1521 that previously had Windows Vista installed. A friend gave me a laptop and "Dr. Frankenstein" I tried to revive him! It did not work. 😐But I'm a persistent, obsessive, crazy lover. I happened to have another laptop that had Windows 8 pre-installed and had been turned into a year-old paperweight due to a previous failed Windows 10 update/upgrade [a free beta offered online].
