Inspiron N5010 HDD replacement.

Hi,

In my Dell Inspiron N5010 internal hardisk failed and shows some bad sector error.

Am planning to replace it with WD 1 TB LAPTOP INTERNAL HARD DRIVE (WD10JPVT/WD10JPVX).

Its specs is 

DRIVE CONFIGURATION
Interface SATA 3.0 Gbps
Device Type 2.5 inch HDD
Cache Memory 8 MB
Drive Capacity 1 TB
Device Laptop
Transfer Rate 150 Mbps
Reliability 600000 (Load/Unload Cycles)
Data Transfer Rate (To/From Host) 3072 Mbps
Form Factor 2.5 inch
Non-recoverable Read Error 1 per 10^14
Spin Speed 5400 rpm

Kindly let me know if it will be supported for Inspiron N5010.

Thanks in advance.

Any standard SATA notebook drive that's 9.5 mm or slimmer will work fine.

Hi Sriram_ravikumar,

The above 2.5 inch hard drive is compatible with the Inspiron N5010 system. The system supports SATA 2 technology then the system will downgrade from SATA 3 speed to SATA 2 speed if SATA 3 hard drive is connected.

Hi,

I am in similar situation as above. Is it is possible to use a SATA 1TB hdd 7200rpm instead of a 5400rpm for the Inspiron N510?

Many thanks in advance, for all your help.

With kind regards,
