>>Hi,
>>
>>I have a Dell Latitude laptop. And yesterday I started getting messages from Window that there is something wrong with the hard drive. Sorry don't remember exact message. The computer and the drive are about 4 years old.
>>So I called Dell and they offered a SSD 1 TB drive to put in place of the existing drive.
>>
>>My questions are, please:
>>1. The Dell support person says that since my existing drive is 2.5" and the SSD is 2.5" too, it will fit into the existing slot.
>>Does this sound right?
>>2. If I buy SSD drive, can I re-partition it just like I did with the existing conventional drive? To make C:, D:, and E: drives?
>>
>>TIA
>
>Yes to both.
Thank you for prompt reply. I have heard or read that SSD do not last as long as conventional drives. Is this true or a myth?
