thank you
I would suggest you install the new hard drive with 7200rpm.you need to get all of the necessary tools and equipment out. You will need a Philips head screwdriver, a pair of needle nose pliers or tweezers, all of the materials with your new hard drive and any manuals from your existing system.
Tools required:
- Small philips head screwdriver
- Small flat-blade screwdriver

this will explain you how to do that
Each hard-disk drive installed in the system is mounted in a hard-disk drive carrier.The front bezel must be removed from the system front panel, and the square metal locking pin must be lifted out before you remove a drive carrier.complete step wise instruction here http://support.dell.com/support/edoc...1/8D657bk1.pdf
