They are 2.5" drives so they made for laptops. You can use them in desktop PC, but you will need a 2.5" to 3.4" bracket like this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817997013

Purchased one of these a year ago, it failed within 3 months. RMA'd it, and the replacement failed within 6 months. Quick drives at a good price, but not worth the headaches.
