“Will this hard drive work with a Dell Inspiron 620s desktop computer that currently has a ST31000524AS ATA hard drive with windows 10?”

• This WD 2Tb Blue hard drive is a SATA III drive. Yes, it should work in the Dell Inspiron 620s as long as you have a spare 3.5 inch hard drive bay, a spare SATA power connector and spare SATA data cable. If you are replacing the ST31000524AS, then you won't need a spare bay or cables except maybe for transferring you files.

• The "footprint" is the same size but check the cable. If your old HD has the wide flat ribbon cable, this one has the new smaller connection that plugs into the motherboard.

• Depends on the motherboard. You can use the SATA drive with an ATA motherboard. Although you can't install SATA hard drives in a computer that can only handle ATA drives, in that case, you can purchase a SATA controller card to use the SATA drive.
