Hi Edward! You may need to consult a person who knows the mechanical part of the computer. Sometimes there are minor technical parts which are not known to us and we may end up ordering different item. I hope this answer ll help you. Thanks, PJN

I recommend take your part out of the computer and compare it side by side to the picture

Yes, but you need to research your particular notebook model to see if the drive is user replaceable.

I just Received this drive. It is not compatible with the thunderbolt adapter (no I/O sockets for the adapter). It only has a USB-3 and power connection. I'm not sure where they came up with STDU4000100 on the sales page because the model # on the case is: SRD00F2. I will be questioning Amazon on this.

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)

I used a laptop optical drive and it works great. The power resources for a desktop optical drive might be different because it usually has the extra moving parts of the tray that pushes open vs the laptop tray that pops open. I doubt that should make a difference though. If you know how to see what the power needs are for your desktop optical drive though, and it fits the amount given through usb, then it should work fine. My guess is that it would be ok. Since, if the power input is the same plug and pin layout, then it probably follows the same power requirements as well. Don't take my word on that though. But, it works great for my laptop optical drive.

I see no reason why not. just pop the new drive in the old ones place, they hook up the same way. However be warned, all of your data will be lost in this process. You should have a windows sticker somewhere on your computer case that has your product key, all you need to do is find a copy of the windows version that you have, install it and put in that product key. To find the drivers that you need just go to dells website and download them from there. If you ever get stuck during the process, google is your best friend.

I bought it with a Panasonic UJ260 6x bluray burner sata laptop drive and worked it out perfectly. But remember to have installed in your pc the right software for playing or burning blu-ray discs.

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.

Yes. Just make sure the drive is brand new and not like an HP, Dell OEM drive that does not come with any warranty.

Might fit, but direct replacement drives for this laptop require you to "dismantle your old optical drive's accessories including bezel (faceplate) and brackets etc. then install them on this new optical drive." The stock faceplate may not fit the LG drive. The only guaranteed fit is the direct replacement drive. Cheers

I cannot answer your question, but be aware there are serial (SATA) and parallel (PATA) hard drive types. Check with Dell for your type.

I know your frustration with this question because I bought this in this was wrong for my computer but from what I'm seeing as looking and comparing from other disk drives for your computer this looks as if it should work. don't take my word as a hundred percent though, but I also wish that they specify the port type as not just IDE because there are multiple versions. I hope this works for you, dual drives in my laptop gave my laptop of life again as an HTPC.

Thank you for checking. We only have Seagate ST31000340NS (35pcs) Firmware: SN06. Please let me know the Dell part# you need and qty and I would be more than happy to find that for you........Prit....

as someone has already mentioned, you would only know its compatibility once you have taken the broken dvd drive out of the dell inspiron laptop. in most cases, the dvd drive is secured by one screw on the flipside of the laptop. remove the screw and pull the dvd drive out of the laptop. once you've taken it out, check the model number and compare with this replacement drive. and most likely, it is compatible and would work just fine. in my case, the replacement face was not exactly the same as the broken unit. however, functionally it works just fine.

Should work fine, use the adapter from the drive you are replacing if possible.

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.

This laptop model looks very recent according to its specs on the Dell site. With that said I am sure this drive will work in this laptop. If Dell has some weird mounting hardware that does not work with this drive you can always return it but I don't forsee that as a problem.
