## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will it work in optical bay (with drive caddy) MacBook Pro early 2011?**
A: According to Crucial support, this drive should work well for the MacBook Pro.

**Q: does it come with mounting brackets to fit a 5 inch bay?**
A: 3.5 adapter yes, 5 inch adapters don't generally come with these.

**Q: Compatible with Dell Inspiron 530**
A: yes! you will be able to add a sata disk like this in dell inspiron 530, as i see it have 2 free sata ports in the motherboard

**Q: compatible with macbookpro late 2011?**
A: The M4 fit perfectly on my 13" Macbook Pro (mid 2012 model).  Crucial's website suggested the slightly smaller 480gb M500 (and didn't list the M4 as being compatible) but the 512gb M4 definitely fits and works perfectly on the 13" Macbook Pro.  I used the free version of SuperDuper to clone the OEM drive to the new Crucial M4 and it was a breeze.
