Are these Dell Drives? I have a Dell Storage Array 3200i and it needs the Dell specific Drives with the Dell Firmware.

The firmware is not on drives but on the controller. What matters is the type drive you need for that controller.

These are not Dell drives. This is a seagate hard drive. It's doing a great job for me.
506542
no these are not dell drives. these are seagate with seagate firmware. but I would guess these would work anyways.

I've never heard of Dell specific hard drives. All Dells that I have seen have WD, Seagate, Samsung drives. The only Dell specific firmware would be in the array itself.

No, this is SATA; IDE is defunct. You can use that old drive as a paper weight. Also get a Solid State Drive and enjoy about 10x improvement in hard drive speed. SSDs are worth every penny.

you can install any hard drive SATA or SAS as long you have the correct cables or asapters please the Dell Guide for compatibiliries thanks

esl537's answer is best for tech details. My Dell is similar to yours & the HD works fine with existing cables. I knew it'd be backward compatible but I could also carry it forward to a new system with higher transfer rates 'one day.' It's been several months & all is well. Much quiter than Seagate it replaced.

It is an IDE device. With most dells you will need to put a adapter on the pins. They are for sale here on Amazon or E Bay where they are only about $2 or so and shipped quickly. Look at the drive and see if you have the multi pin interface or a flat interface.Check the dell documentation with any questions on the interface.You of course will need to format the drive before it shows on your system.You should have no problems beyond those listed above. I am relatively impressed how good it seems to work for me so far. Good Luck

No, just google Dell d410 hard drive and make sure, it's probably a 2.5" SATA drive.

The descrpition for the CD drive includes Dell 15** models. The CD drive should fit. Just compare it to the one you remove. Hope this helps. The CD drive should be returnable. I hope this helps.

Greetings Christian, after a quick read on the poweredge 2950 specs, it seems to me that this Hard Drive will work with no problem. But, if you are planning to use a RAID or NAS or SAS array, and have doubts, I will suggest to read closely this 2 links that might provide some help, or call to Dell customer service for more info.1. http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/pedge/en/2950_specs.pdf2. http://www.webopedia.com/DidYouKnow/Computer_Science/sas_sata.aspIf you have any more questions, just ask. Have a nice day, Lenin.

I have Sata II WD Black drives in mine. However I would suggest a different Raid bay. This one has its own raid card and it works intermittently. There is a lack of support for the card and its very cumbersome.

If you go to the Dell site you can look at or print a manual that is very detailed on how to add or replace your hard drives. You'll probably get a good idea of what you'll be dealing with.

I am not familiar with the Dell specs, but just make sure it supports SATA drives, for the physical connection. If you are using a current OS (Windows 7 or better) then you should be okay. At worse you may need a driver or firmware update.

Yes. There are available RPC1 firmwares from "http://files.rpc1.org/index.php?act=category&id;=1778". Make sure that you choose the Apple firmware for Apple branded drive and Dell firmware for non-Apple brand drive. However, there is also a danger of bricking your drive if any part of the flashing process goes wrong. So do it at your own risk.

Yes, no problem. I personally use a standard SATA drive through, I need the capacity. Works like a charm...

I installed this drive in an Dell Optiplex 740 MT which can handle sata II or sata III hard drives. You need to check the specifications of your motherboards controller and find out if it can handle that type of drive. My processor is an Athlon X2 64.

I confirm you that not work I bought for dell eql and firmware not accept this disk.

My experience has been that it will copy hard drives that have errors on them exactly as they are. What it won't do is copy drives with EISA partitions on them. Most of the older Dell computers utilized that type of partition and this unit just balks when it gets to that partition. I like the unit and the reporting is better than some of the others but it still leaves you wondering.
