So I have an Inspiron 3847 and it has a 3.5’ 1TB hard drive. Sorry, I’m not at home right now and forget which brand.
I was hoping to upgrade to a SSD and therewithin lies the problem. I can’t find any 3.5 SSDs.
I’m very confused. But would it be possible to connect a 2.5’ SSD to the same Sata connectors my current (old) hard drive uses? I’m unsure which version of sata it is.
My PC was built in 2014 if that helps.
Esata (external sata) card:

Using esata, the drive would be using external sata (esata) allowing you to boot from any number of ssd drive caddy’s using esata:
