Alienware Older Laptops

Trying to breath new life into an older Alienware. So far, so good!

The Mobile Edge Alienware Vindicator Backpack for 18 Laptop & Gear is everything other reviews said it would be. I did not really want a backpack, I wanted a briefcase style bag, but I cannot seam to find any at good price point with good features that fir the mammoth ROGs. Alienware knocks it out of the park with the Vindicator Series. I want to let you know the actual size of the ASUS ROG G75VW-DS72 laptop. 16.34 x 12.6 x 2.047 thick with a 17.3 diag. screen. All the measurements are exact from the manufacture, verified with a tape measure and tight to the body. The one thing the manufactures do not take into consideration is that the bezels are all different thicknesses, newer laptops are much thinner than their older counterparts, therefor using the screen size as a determining factor is not possible for large format laptops. I took a chance on someone else's review that their ROG laptop fit with room to spare. Look at my pictures and you will actually see it fitting with a little room to spare on the sides and plenty on top. Hope this helps the next person.

Excellent tough back pack-I've owned two of these for carrying around my Alienware 18.4 R1 and R2 laptops-These laptops are heavy bulky and awkward to move around but when set up are very particle just like a desk top. These back packs have held up very-well, no torn stitches or collapsing panels, zippers still look good and work well. I gave one pack to my friend and kept the other to transport my Alienware area 51 R2 and the two large AC power supplies required.

I have installed about a dozen of these drives into older laptops. I have not had any issues at all. In general SSDs will improve the performance over mechanical hard drives, but for top performance you want a drive with the highest IOPS. This one rates high (near 90K for both read and write) compared to most. NOTE: If you motherboard supports M.2 SSDs, that would be faster than the SATA SSDs.

Used for older laptops to hook up to new projector. Can't beat price for this quality on a legacy cable.

Works perfectly with both of my laptops! I needed an adapter for my older one, but that’s not Kingston’s fault; plenty of storage space too

This USB is quite useful, and fast. Having both a Type-C and Type-A port is very handy, especially when going between older and newer model laptops.

This converter plug comes in handy when needing to use newer devices that use Type-C with older laptops that don't have such a port.

MOST ALL OLDER LAPTOPS, DESKTOPS AND ANY OTHER ELECTRONICS ONLY HAVE USB INPUT/OUTLETS AND DON'T HAVE TYPE C PORTS.

I have used many of the these PNY SSDs to upgrade older laptops. One of the best value SSDs with TLC memory. Never had one fail yet. Linux and these SSDs give new life to older laptops that can no longer securely run windows 7. Linux Lite 5.2 especially works very well as a replacement for windows 7, plus it's free.
