Is this hard drive compatible with Dell E520?
1846007
I put it in a really old Dell 4600, with a IDE adapter. I had no problems what so ever. All you need to do is make sure you have lots of memory, and a fast processor, to handle the hard drive. I now use my drive as a secondary drive in my new computer.. You can get adapter from Amazon if you need one. If it is slow just upgrade you memory, that will help a lot.

It should, the connections look the same on this hard drive as one pulled out of a 531s. This hard drive was pulled out of a Dell Inspiron 531.

probably yes, as most major manufacturers use standard 2.5 inch hard drives, they then add a proprietary adapter and connector that you will have to remove from the existing drive i do not own a dell notebook so i cannot verify this as 100% correct

Yes it will work fine. I like the way it's answered on this page: http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/laptop/f/3518/t/19253643.aspx Keep in mind that when the person asking says 3gb drive he means sata 3.

According to Dell you should b able to use this module as long as it matched what you already have installed. Your user guide is below please check it carefully before placing order. http://downloads.dell.com/Manuals/all-products/esuprt_desktop/esuprt_dell_precision_workstation/precision-t3400_user%27s%20guide_en-us.pdf Kingston Specs: 2GB Module - DDR2 800MHz Part Number: KVR800D2N6/2G Specs: DDR2, 800MHz, Non-ECC, CL6, 1.8V, Unbuffered, DIMM, Type: 667-MHz ECC and non-ECC and 800-MHz ECC DDR2 SDRAM NOTE: Ensure that you do not mix ECC and non-ECC memory.

From a brief look, it appears the E521 has the required 5.25" drive bay (2 total, though your current optical drive may need to come out) and an SATA connector on the motherboard (the service manual says connect CD/DVD drive to SATA2 or SATA3 labeled connectors on the motherboard, SATA0 and SATA1 are for HDD). The E521 does appear to be an older model but the drivers says they work back to XP. I installed my LG drive on a Win7 system.

If you look at your current DELL E520 power supply, you will find a model number on it. Type that model number into the Amazon search bar click 'Go' and compatible power supplies for your particular machine will show in the search results. That is how I found it to be compatible with my HP machine. Hope this helps.

It should be alright. The Dell support page talks about replacing a 7mm drive, so the EVO should work. The SATA operation setting in the laptop's BIOS may have to be changed from its default setting of RAID ON to AHCI enabled. AHCI must be enabled, according to Samsung. I don't believe that EVO supports RAID, if that is important to you. Other than that it should work.

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

It looks like it should work fine. This drive is the 2.5" form factor and your Dell has SATA drive connections.

The answer to that lies in compatibility. You can look for drives related to your E425 thinkpad directly. I am not a compatibility expert unfortunately.

I would recommend using one on Thecus's compatibility list: http://www.thecus.com/download/compatibility/hdd/N4520SERIES_N2800_N4800_N4800Eco_N5550_N4510U_N7510_HDD_SSD_list.pdfAlso consider that Enterprise rated drives will last longer and potentially perform a bit faster, but might not be worth the price bump for just backups.

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. Yes, this will work. Western Digital Black drives are some of the most reliable drives that I've encountered.

The "Tusi" answer is probably correct. I bought mine from "Ken's Computer shop" and they were able to respond specifically that it would work in my Dell Dimension E310. I couldn't find the info in email -- maybe the guy responded in an online forum or on the phone.

hard drive is a hard drive... it will work in a dell 310 but it might void warranty from dell..

I used the one I got on a dell with an ide busAs far as I know all the computers I have encountered with 2.5 inch hard drives (about 6or7) would have been able to use this drive

I don't believe it will fit. Try the 2nd Hard Drive Caddy DELL E6400, E6500, E6410, E6510 Modular Bay (original Newmodeus), also sold by Amazon.
