Hello,
I have a Dell, entry-level laptop from about 2016. I want to replace the mechanical HD with an SSD, but the laptop is not with me, but in Israel and I can't open it to see what kind of SSD it is. But I want to buy it before I go there, because these things are cheaper in Italy than in Israel.
I'm told there are 2 kinds of SSDs, the flat plastic box, about 6x8cm and 1cm thick, which I am familiar with, and something completely different, a "new kind."
Does anyone know if I can be sure that a 2016 budget Dell will accept the old kind?
Thanks for any help.
