Will this work with my Dell xps 15? null

If you have a sata 2.5" drive slot, yes it will work.

It will work if you have a 2 1/2 or 3 1/2 inch drive space, of course with the 3 1/2 inch, you’ll need a tray adapter, which can vary in price. If that laptop has an M.2 SSD, then no.

Best way to find out is to go to Dell.com and enter the service tag of your computer. That will tell you the hard drive specs of your model. If the specs reference an mSata port or other than a standard SATA connection. Then it won’t work. If you open your computer and it has a mechanical drive. It will work. How do you know if it is a mechanical drive? You can simply put your ear to the computer without even opening it and if you hear something that sounds like it is spinning up to speed. Then it is mechanical and you can use this drive with no problems. Only IDE, EIDE and SATA drives are mechanical. But IDE and EIDE are no longer used and haven’t been for a very long time. Safe bet that if you hear something spinning up then it’s a mechanical SATA.

Hi, WD Blue SSDs are available in either a 2.5”/7mm cased or an M.2 2280 model to evolve with smaller and thinner computers. With form factors to accommodate most laptops, desktop PCs, and small form PCs, a WD Blue SSD is ready for the job. Need Help? Please see our "'Contact Us" page for information

This should work in any application to replace a platter drive.
