Hi, I have a Dell E6400 laptop with an HL-DT-ST CDRWDVD MU10N optical drive installed. Can I replace it with the UJ892?

Yes, I had a Dell Latitude E6500 and it works fine. Two problems, however. First, the cosmetic faceplate from your old drive will not fit the UJ892. The faceplate that comes with the UJ892 is flat, not sloped so it doesn't match the case profile correctly. I don't think this is a big deal. Second, and more importantly, the UJ892 lacks the mechanism that locks the drive in the case (and the tab that springs out so you can pull the drive out). I've had it fall out when moving the laptop around. No damage but a bit disconcerting. There is another drive that is equivalent to the UJ892 but includes the drive latch. Unfortunately, I don't remember what is is. But I found it originally just by search around the web. Sorry, I can't provide.

Sorry, I don't understand the question. I don't know much about the drive. The one in my Dell Inspiron failed and this was a good economical replacement.

There is no optical drive in this laptop. You can get a cheap USB DVD/CD combo drive for somewhere around $30. Make sure that you take that into consideration when comparing prices, if having an optical drive is important to you. You can try this option from Samsung, but there are definitely other options out there: Samsung USB 2.0 Ultra Portable External DVD Writer Model SE-218CB/RSBS

It is replaced by the second graphics card. There is no CDROM/DVD/BR drive at all. It has an ultrabay slot that supposedly Lenovo will offer a quick swap DVDRW drive eventually but it has not shown up yet.

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. There are plenty of youtube videos showing how to change and clone laptop drives.

Sorry no. It's just a standard DVDRW drive that's in-built. At least my particular model's is in-built.

I called the Drive Company and gave them my model number. You can find their number on their website.

I put it in my Alienware system. They are both pretty similar it should work, I would think as long as you have an Msata slot it should read it just fine. If it doesn't come up as My Digital, it will come up as generic drive. It is very fast for the price.

Ivan the Terrible says: I wonder if upgrading RAM to 2GB will increase speed of the operation? How difficult to open up and replace 1GB part with 2GB? It does not have an optic drive. Does any CD/DVD external drive for laptops will work with 1002HA? I would like to install Microsoft Office and also have with me some data while I travel on CD/DVD. What it makes eeebuntu better than XP home? I apologize for some naive questions. Greatly appreciate if somebody replies with comments.

External DVD drive would be the best option. Optical drives are atypical on lightweight ultrabooks.

im not sure. the way i figured it out was watching youtube videos. i know there is an easy way to tell which drive you need, but i can't remember. good luck. also i know that the is a piece of the old drive you will need to unsolder from the original and solder into the new unit.

I would check the external trim on the Dell. Internally the drive's design is of a standard configuration. External trim is where they can differ.

There is an Ultra Bay where the disc drive should be, meaning that you could easily replace whatever is already in the bay (Most likely an extra fan) with a DVD drive or an extra graphics card. (Purchased from Lenovo)

Yes you could, what you need to know....... The drive inside is a std length (~2"/50mm) long w/ the M2 interface. If you are going to clone the original drive you will need to get a M2 to SATA adapter to make it easy.

Yes it fits. As i checked online the model comes with 9.5mm sata drive that matches the uj262. If could be perfect if you take out the drive and let me know the model name of the original drive.Thanks.

I don't actually have the computer. I bought it for my sister-in-law. My guess is that the Easy Swap Drive Bay is optional, but i would check with Gateway to make sure it's compatible with this model. For example, Gateway specifically mentions the Easy Swap Drive Bay for model DX4380G-UW308, but I don't see that mentioned for your model.
