Hard drive and SSD replacement on the Dell Inspiron 5160
The Dell Inspiron 5160 uses an IDE (PATA) hard drive or a 2.5-inch SATA hard drive, depending on the version. We replace it with a faster SSD and copy your system and files across.
It shipped with a spinning hard drive. Swapping it for an SSD is the single biggest speed improvement you can make, and we copy your system and files across.
What we do
We fit a new SSD and, while the old drive is still readable, copy your system, programs and files across so everything works as before. If the old drive can't be read, we talk to you about data recovery first.
How long it takes. Often the same day.
