Latitude E5550 with 240 GB SSD

The Dell Latitude E5550 is a 15.6 inch laptop running Windows 10 Pro on an Intel Core i5-5300U dual-core processor at 2.30 GHz with a turbo frequency of 2.90 GHz. It comes with 8 GB of DDR3 memory and a new 240 GB 2.5 inch SATA SSD. Intel HD Graphics 5500 drives the 1366 x 768 HD non-touch display.

Suits office and web use; not for heavier workloads

This configuration suits everyday office applications, web browsing and video playback on the 15.6 inch HD screen. Buyers who want more storage than 240 GB or who need a touchscreen should look at other models. The dual-core CPU and integrated graphics limit performance for demanding creative or engineering tasks.

240 GB 2.5 inch SATA SSD decides fit

The single specification that decides whether this is the right part is the 240 GB 2.5 inch SATA SSD. It sets the total capacity and the interface speed for the operating system and files. The two memory slots support up to 16 GB of DDR3 if more RAM is required later.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 8 GB configuration or upgrade to the 16 GB maximum?

The system ships with 8 GB of DDR3 in two slots and supports up to 16 GB total, so you can add another 8 GB module later if your workload needs more memory.

What does the 2.30 GHz base clock with 2.90 GHz turbo mean for everyday tasks?

The dual-core i5-5300U runs at 2.30 GHz normally and boosts to 2.90 GHz for short bursts, giving snappy response for office apps, web browsing and video playback.

How fast is the 240 GB SSD over the 2.5-inch SATA connection?

The 2.5-inch SATA SSD delivers solid-state boot and load times well above a mechanical drive, though the SATA link limits peak throughput to the SATA III ceiling.
