Probably an easy question
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.
SSD trays are your friend

Buy any 2.5" ssd and install it in any number of 2.5 to 3.5 trays available.
EDIT: And yes, your sata connection will work fine.
And the sata connections will work as if it were 3.5" drives? To power and read data?
Edit: upvoted. I wrote this before your edit.
Edited again and added a corsair cheap option that I personally use on mine. Works with any sata power and data cables.
