Question 2

Does this drive come with cloning software?

Accepted Answer

No I did not find any additional software included.  However the manufacturer has a website which I did not look up.  I don't know if there's any downloads on their support website.  There was nothing in the package to indicate that and I didn't need clone software.

Question 6

Will this work in a Dell xps L502x laptop?

Accepted Answer

Your Dell XPS L502x  uses SATA, same as this SSD.  So yes, it should work with your laptop.

Question 7

Would any hard drive rack work for this hard drive?

Accepted Answer

Depending where you install it will determine what you'll need.   If you install it on a 3.5 bay you'll need a bracket  which accommodates 2.5 SSD.  Some cases already have a place to install a 2.5 SSD drive like this one.  SSD drives have no moving parts so, I've installed them in the past in a 5.25 bay with double sticky tape. Just remember this SSD is 2.5 inch in size, good luck!
