Yes this product will work for older Laptops and Desktops. I currently have it installed on an older Asus laptop.

It should work in any computer/laptop that has standard full-sized SATA connections. This is the same length and width of a normal 2.5" drive, just thinner than a hard-dick drive.

Not likely. I believe laptops back then used IDE interfaces and the SSD uses a SATA interface...

RideWyoming · Answer

Make sure your laptop has SATA interface. I used this drive to replace my old 120GB SSD drive and installed the old SSD in my old laptop (a Dell I purchased 3 or 4 years ago) and it works fine. Actually it works better, after mirroring the HD now it went from booting in 10 minutes to booting in 20 seconds.

This product has SATA connectivity, which is kind of latest. So depends on the type of your previous hard drive model (i.e, IDE/SATA/mSATA), choose it before you buy.
Processor has nothing to do with hard drive compatibility.

Will · Answer

This depends on the type of connectors. This one has standard SATA power and data.
