Question 1

will this work in a Toshiba Satellite C55Dt-A-5244 laptop?

Accepted Answer

Thank you.  I am replacing my hard drive and have no idea what to order.  My nephew is going to replace the old one for me and this is what he suggested.  I am locked out of my computer because I was foolish enough to download windows 8.1 and did not record the password correctly. I feel like I was hijacked.  Anyway, I will just replace the hard drive, download Linux.  Microsoft wanted $250.95 to help me sign on to my computer. Forget them.

Question 2

Will this work for a Dell Inspiron E6400?

Accepted Answer

This drive should work  with any laptop computer that has a SATA connection.  Based on my research on the system you asked about it looks like it does have a SATA connection so you shouldn't have a problem with it in your Inspiron.  I personally bought it for my Acer laptop.  Works like a charm!

Question 6

is this compatible with my Dell Latitude D630 laptop?

Accepted Answer

I don't see why not. I installed in a newer model Compaq Presario with the same size drive. I ordered the replacement software from HP. The software partitioned & format the drive and then re-installed Windows 7 and all the drivers and programs that were originally installed without any problems at all.

Question 7

Is there a bracket to install into a desktop computer?

Accepted Answer

This HD or any HD this size don't come with a bracket to make Fit a 3.5 inch bay in a desktop. You would half to purchase  a kit separately to convert it to fit a 3.5" bay in a desktop.

If you didn't buy it already or don't have it this drive in your position. Then you should look at a 3.5" HD for your desktop. Would be cheaper then buying a 2.5" HD and a kit to convert it to 3.5"

Question 10

will this hard drive fit a Acer Aspire 5742z-4685 laptop?

Accepted Answer

2.5" is a standard size for laptops.  The real challenge is how hard it is to actually get to the HDD bay on the laptop to replace the drive.
It's also a SATA, which is crazy common, so that shouldn't be an issue either.
You should be able to look up your model and compare specs, but It's dang near a guarantee that it will fit.
