Sata is Sata, if you have a sata connector it will work just fine, have fun cloning. All my pc's I use this size ssd, they can be installed anywhere inside the case away from exhaust heat from other components . You might want to purchase a ssd adapter for the hd bracket, or just stick in the bracket loose, I have installed them with Velcro, double sided tape or just loose. It will work just fine, Game on, Game on!!!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.As long as you have SATA connection in you desktop it should work. If your existing HD is larger than 2.5 HD size you may need kit with brackets to fit it securely. Or come up with your own system as long as new SSD is not lose in your case.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can install it on your desktop. It may require a 2.5" to 3.5" bracket to hole the drive.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This can be put in desktops or laptops. The 2.5" form factor is primarily for laptops, so mounting in a desktop may require another bracket or ingenuity. I usually find holes that line up with 2 screw points of the ssd and just screw it in, skipping the extra bracket. I've repaired systems where double sided tape has been used, as well as zip ties. Biggest thing is ensuring the cables / connectors won't be able to bend or break.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes it should work in a desktop if you have standard SATA power & data connectors available. You will need to either clone your old drive or reinstall windows from scratch depending on your exact situation.
