Store important games, videos, music, and more on this Western Digital Blue series hard drive. Its 2.5-inch form factor makes it suitable for use in laptops or notebooks. This 500GB Western Digital Blue series hard drive runs at 5400 rpm for decreased heat and power consumption.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I usually buy Seagate, but the price on this WD hard drive was too good to pass up. For value-conscious buyers, you can't beat this hard drive!
My Best Buy number: 2872119866

Yes, it will work, but you will have to get a Windows installation disk or use system restore disks you may have created to reinstall a working Windows on the new HDD.

Is this WD500 Mainstream SATA HDD compatible with Dell Inspiron N5050?

Dell laptop HDD is dying 2 months post warranty. They won't replace it but with full cost. So, I Need to replace it and restore one of several backup types onto it from window system image to Dell local backup app....all from USB External HDD.
Quick question: If the new disk is empty, how can I get laptop to see the external USB and restore image?? Thank you!!
You would try booting up with a Windows installation disk that matches the windows installed on the computer, and if you used Windows to make a system backup image on your external HDD, you could restore that image by choosing "Repair this computer" from the first installation screen that comes up, and follow the option to restore from system backup.
If you used a 3rd-party backup and restore software, you may have to install Windows first, then install the 3rd-party backup and restore software, then restore the files on your external HDD.
Hope this helps!
