Top pick: The Samsung 990 EVO 1TB offers excellent performance and reliability at a competitive price point. It fits, but as a newer PCIe drive it runs at this laptop’s slower interface speed (Dell quotes up to 8 Gbps).

Power Delivery & Charging

The Dell XPS 13 9360 charges from a 45W 4.7mm barrel adapter. Before buying a USB-C PD charger as a spare, note that Dell does not list USB-C charging for this model. Use a 45W 19.5V adapter with a 4.7mm barrel plug.
