| | Yes, by using a USB 3.0 Expansion card if your laptop has an ExpressCard slot built in. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ExpressCard  Here are some examples of the products in that classification:- Belkin SuperSpeed USB 3.0 ExpressCard™ F4U024 Review Iomega USB 3.0 ExpressCard /34 - Notebookcheck.net Reviews You didn't mention exactly what Dell Inspiron Model you have so I cannot make any educated assumptions on whether your Laptop can or cannot support such expansion cards. |
