I believe no one who works with linux could answer your question. Try and error is the only way.

But if some got a list from Dell which Laptop uses which variant this could be used in conjunction with dmidecode:

        sudo dmidecode > systeminfo

The new file "systeminfo" shows many things and this:

Handle 0x0100, DMI type 1, 27 bytes
System Information
        Manufacturer: Dell Inc.
        Product Name: Latitude D430
        Version: Not Specified
        Serial Number: xxxxxxxx
        UUID: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <------- UID is erased by me
        Wake-up Type: Power Switch
        SKU Number: Not Specified
        Family:

With this an identification could be possible.
