Dell Latitude D420 and SSD

I am told by Dell that the Latitude D420 can support an SSD, but I cannot find any compatible drives on Crucial's site. Can someone point me in the right direction?

 

Thanks,

Re: Dell Latitude D420 and SSD

Do you know what sized drive you can fit to it?  According to the last post here it only takes 1.8" drives: http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=321074

Whereas Crucials SSD's are 2.5"

 

With regards to compatibility they are sata drives just like all modern hard disks so all that matters is that you have a sata cable (instead of or as well as an old style ide cable) and a 2.5" (or 3.5" and adaptor) hard drive bay to fit it in.  It looks like you are out of luck on the last point. :smileysad:
