Question about Samsung 860 EVO Basic

I tried to install the SSD in the Dell Inspirion 1525 laptop, but it is not recognised, nor is it displayed via Gparted (Linux live system). Is the SSD not compatible for this? Thanks for the answer

I saw that the Inspiron 1525 is a bit older - Core2Duo. Nevertheless, if it has SATA ports, it should work. SATA is downward compatible, i.e. the SSD should also work with an old SATA adapter. I would check the BIOS to see what is displayed there. If you haven't already done so, I would update to the latest BIOS that was available: https://www.dell.com/support.... That's all I can think of.

I think that the laptop probably does not have the technology to read an SDD LW. Check the instruction manual or forums to see what that comes out to. It's just a guess.
