Drives

Your computer supports:

One SATA (serial ATA) hard drive

One 3.5-inch drive bay (to support a floppy drive, media card reader, or optional second SATA hard drive)

One SATA optical drive

One eSATA drive (with optional bracket)

NOTE: Due to the limited number of drive bays and controllers on this computer, you will not be able to connect all supported devices at once.

NOTE: If you will be operating your computer without an optical drive or a 3.5-inch device (floppy drive or media card reader) installed, the appropriate drive bay insert must be installed in place of the drive. Contact Dell if you need a drive bay insert.
