No way, it is a custom fit specially made for asus. Maybe on another models....

Good question. I've been having issues with my hard drive lately. It says my memory is too low and to add memory. I've purchased an iPad to replace this product. For what I spent on this ASUS, I am not happy that it only lasted just over 1 year before major problems. I would look at an HP. Good luck.

It is a non-standard flash memory, not a standard mSATA. It can be accessed though.

yes, put the hard drive in an external enclosure to convert it into an external hard drive

If you mean put more memory on the hard drive, you can't. I asked the sales people where I bought it from.

It's not that simple, but yes. Suggest you google this question in your browser: "how to transfer data from one external hard drive to another".

Short answer: Yes. I did it and it works great. Long Answer: It's not simple, especially if you are upgrading to a smaller disk. 1) Create a recovery disk/thumb drive with the Windows Utility. Besides being a good idea, they offer you the option to delete the Recovery partition from the back end of the drive. Doing so will allow you to more easily manipulate the existing partitions for transfer. 2) Delete the blank d: Data partition. I am not sure why they break it up like this. Possibly shrink the System partition (I first went to a 128GB drive, then to a 256). 3) Unscrew the bottom, remove the drive (REAL SHUT DOWN FIRST!!!) 4) I tried to use Clonezilla to duplicate the drive, but this didn't work so well. So I ended up using a simple dd command in linux. If all this is beyond you, just find a local geek to help. 5) Plugged in the new drive, screwed it all back up, and it worked! ONE ISSUE!!! Upon reboot, Windows thinks it's a special version called Windows To Go, and won't let you install from the MS Store.

Yes, you must change. In addition you have to change all connected IDE-ATA devices to SATA connection and remove the floppy drive.

No, the new hard drive has to equal or larger size than the original if you are going to clone without computer. However, there is a way to clone partitions from the old drive to the new one if you use the free Home edition of Mini Tool Partion Wizard 9.0. Hook up the new drive to Port A and connect the included USB cable from this device to the computer that has the drive that you to clone. Do some research on web on "how to" so you don't mess up your original drive! GOOD LUCK on tinkering with it.

No, you can use the external hard drive, it only support internal hard drive, sorry for that.

1. Yes, the Hard drives appear to be replaceable--there are doors for them on the back of the drive.2. I do not know--I have not tried this, and the manual does not address this issue.

There isn't a hard drive. It's a SDD. You ca check Crucial.com, they have a scan tool that will evaluate your machine and recommend upgrades.

No. The interchangeable disks make this feature impossible or at the very least hard to execute.

Yes, you actually can add a hard drive. There are caveats to what you can do and you have to "hack" the unit (by adding a text file to a special folder on the drive - about the simplest hack I can think of) but it is very easy. Search for "fun_plug dns 323" on the search engine of your choice.

Yes you can. If you are going to replace the drives try to go with the same name drives or at least 7200 RPM.
