Yes, this drive will work fine. The HTS5416 is a newer design that runs cooler and lasts longer than the HTS5410.

Although i don't own a dell inspiron 6000, It should work. The one you have is a travelstar 5K100 series, while this one is 5K160. Spec almost the same so performance wise should be the same. Did some quick search, If your laptop is the same model as one mention from the following web url, http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/laptop/f/3518/p/19489758/20291570.aspx, the answer is yes.

I assume you were taking the drive from your inspiron? Like previous answer you need a SATA enclosure if this one does not have the right connectors. This one is only for very old drives. Also you're getting the drive from a desktop (not a laptop) you need the 3.5" enclosure.

I replaced the Hitachi "Travelstar" 5400 RPM 60GB ATA hard drive that was in my DELL Inspiron 6000 with The one from AMAZON. The new one was 80 GB.I bought a connector to adapt it to the DELL Inspiron but could have reused the one from the original drive. I used SW from DELL and loaded new operating system. Hope this helps.

Hi, Unless your system has a mSATA slot it will not work. This is the best info I could find for you. http://www.crucial.com/upgrade/Dell-memory/Inspiron+Laptops%2FNotebooks/Inspiron+1420-upgrades.html

Andrew, That's a generic Seagate drive but the Dell version you would need is Dell Part # W347K. Order that part # and you should be good. I hope this helps answer your question. Scott All Computer Parts

The drive should drop right into your laptop, according to both Dell and Crucial. I have had no difficulty putting them into a number of different laptops. The 512 specs out slightly faster, but only very slightly. They're both very fast, use very little power, and very resistant to data loss from dropping. Just turn off auto-defrag!

If its Sata it wont work, has to be ATA or they also called it IDE, for newer Dell Laptops, Sata will work and not ATA (IDE).

Maybe. If you are tech savvy, then it may work. The hard drive was used for a Dell Inspiron E1505. ` had to jump thru a lot of hoops. Apparently the Inspiron thought the 350 GB drive was only 40 GB drive. A techy hardware friend helped me install it. It was a real pain in the butt ! It may be better to just buy a new computer. A lot of them come with 1 TB now. Good luck

I have it installed in a Dell Studio 1735 laptop as the primary drive. If it is to be a secondary drive, you will probably need a kit that includes a bracket and a connector adapter. If you don't have the same model laptop, I suggest you contact Crucial.

According to the specs on this drive, it will work with the Dell Inspiron 15r. However, when you do receive it, you might need to change the interface bracket on the rear of your original DVD drive onto the one you receive before plugging it in. Verify the view of the rear settings to ensure it looks alike. If not, then make the change as mentioned. Thank you for your question.

jnwarm, if you were referring to Seagate Momentus 750GB XT, unfortunately Amazon does provide info which item I purchased in responding to. I currently I have it in my Dell Latitude E6510 and working with no issue.

Not familiar w/ that notebook per se, but, assuming it already has a primary HDD, then must look to see if there's a spot for a secondary. You might also need mounting hardware: screws to attach the drive to some frame/bracket/"carrier" that then mounts the ensmble to the laptop. At least this is what I needed to add this drive as secondary to my Dell Latitude 3300 - only had a 60GB mSata HDD as original equip't. As for the drive itself, a terrific choice (whether as primary or secondary): quiet, fast, and well built (5 yr warranty!). Did I say fast? Hope this helps.

This drive will work in your Inspiron if it has IDE. If your Inspiron has SATA or PATA, it will not work

It works with our Dell inspiron just fine. Plugs into the usb port. The drive in the computer failed. This was a quick, easy fix.

I think most modern laptops in the last 5 plus years will work with this hard drive. My bet is it will. The issue to consider is how will you use the hard drive? Will you image your old drive or install a fresh build?

I have not worked on that particular model of laptop. However, I have worked on at least a dozen other laptops of various brand (Toshiba, Sony, HP, and Dell) and I have been successful in using SSD drives in them. Only in once Dell laptop was the drive a problem. The SSd driive is thinner than the SATA drive that comes in the laptop. Because it did not have any mounting bracket and slid directly into the laptop, it would not line up properly. I had to cut out a few sheets of thin plastic and tape them to the drive to give it the thickness it needed to line up . After that, it went in fine and has been working fine ever since.

I reviewed the specifications for the Dell Inspiron 1100 and the Hitachi should work. You will need either the original install disks or some way to clone your old HD to the new. Hitachi some times includes that software and an case for the old drive. Acronis is a good option for the software.
