Yes it does. I think it requires one before it will work. I had one laying around anyway so thats what i used but when i took it out of the box and tried to set it up it just sat there until i put the drive in and then it came up.

Yes it has a SATA connection as that is the interface it is designed to use. For further details go to OEM website: http://www.asus.com/us/Optical_Drives/DRW24B3ST/

No it does not come with a hard drive. You have to buy one. You can get a cheap one that fits in a desktop compute for under 50 dollars.

It does not have a hard drive in it. It is just western digital expanding its horizons and doing very well at it. Thank you for your question.

No, it doesn't. Hard drives bought separately from a computer don't generally have anything installed on them.

Yes. You have to remove the DVD/CD Drive... And replace it with the SATA Hard disk drive...

It has been a long time since I have gotten this item. I don't remember if it did or not, and so I'm not able to help you with that. It does say in the description that it comes with a sata cable and a molex to sata power connector and so I believe it does. This drive replaced a defective WH14NS40 14x drive that I got earlier.

Yes indeed, it takes a 2.5" SATA connection. This is the SSD I bought to put in my system about 4 months ago, no issues: Kingston Digital 120GB SSDNow V300 SATA 3 2.5 (7mm height) Solid State Drive (SV300S37A/120G)

It is an internal hard drive. There are products that will allow you to connect a sata drive to a computer via usb, but you'd probably just be better off buying an external drive.

This comes with no hard drive. You need to buy a mSATA SSD. Note it is the mSATA, not the usual size you would have for your notebook or your desktop.

Yes the cable has a SATA II connection for hard drives, its compattable with all SATA II HDDs or SSDs and most SATA III.

MANUFACTURER ANSWER: Thanks for asking! No, our dock only takes SATA hard drives. Your drive is not compatible as it uses a different connection, commonly referred to as IDE/PATA.

No. It needs a drive that has a sata connector. All the slim drives have only a usb 3 connection.

No. SATA only. However do a search on Amazon for IDE Docking Station and you'll find one.

As long as your drive supports SATA, your laptop will support the hard drive.
