    Does anyone know which specific Noble Lock I need for my Alienware 13 r3? I went to their website and found it woefully inadequate as their product compatibility search returns only Alienware 13, which as we know, can be widely different between the revisions.

    Thanks for the reply. I just ordered one can't remember which off the top of my head. If it's compatible I'll add it here.

    However this morning the Noble Locks rep got back to me and I quote, "I've confirmed with my technical engineer that both the R2 and RS versions of the Alienware 13 will work with the TZ04T and the TZ05T locks."

    I'm not sure what RS means but maybe she was trying to type R3 on a phone's keyboard.

    Most probably he meant R3 :D after all 3 & S would look the same for someone who isn't familiar with the naming scheme.
