Inspiron 530 Convert to GPT

I bought a 3tb drive to replace a 500gb that failed and
didn't know about that I needed GPT for it to recognize the total 3tb and I
have already copied all my data over. I noticed that this product will convert
the drive without losing the data, but then I was prompted to make sure my
computer can even handle GPT. Has anyone ever converted the primary boot drive
from MBR to GPT on an Inspiron 530? I called Dell and they wouldn’t say because
I put 64 bit Windows 8.1 Pro on this computer.

Also, I put a secondary hard drive in with data and
converted it without issue. Is that a good enough test to show that this will
work on my boot drive?

  • Hi,

    I don't test it on a Inspiron 530, but I have done this many times on my Virtual Machine, it worked very well.
