Only if your recovery disc contains an operating system. 80 gb is fairly small theses days.

Yes it will, It is a standard laptop hard drive. The most difficult part is removing the old drive. There are instructions for that on the internet.tom Walker

You have to check with the vendor for exact configuration available. I got one with Win7 Pro 32bit, pre-installed. It came with a knock-off "Win 7 repair CD" and a DVD with a current "system image" for recovery of the operating system in the event the drive fails.

If this is the case, what happens if the original drive fails? Can you just replace that drive or do you have to reinstall everything?

You can hook up the drive but you might need a recovery program - I suggest "icare" - good program.

It does not include a recovery disk. There is a recovery partition on the hard drive. You can make your own recovery disk with an included program.

You can format this drive to either FAT32, NTFS, ExFAT, or whatever. Will work for system backup or making a recovery disk.

It should work as long as you have a sata connection. Are you replacing a factory drive or adding an additional ? If it will be replacing a factory drive it should work just fine. If you are adding an additional you would just need to make sure you have a sata cable free to plug into.

If its the same mobo as the old one, it should work, if its different it might work but would take a lot of extra effort. It would probably be easier to purchase another hard disk and completely re-install the OS, then pull your data off of your old hard drive.

It does create a complete clone. I have deleted everything on my HD and then restored the OS and data. I don't believe you can use it as a C drive but, it will format a new drive to look like your old one.

Yes it will work - seeing it is already using a 500gb SATA hard drive - so you should be fine to swap it out with 750gb hard drive. Hope this helps!

It would work but it would need to be formatted to Mac OS X Extended (Journaled) in order for it to work properly. Also, make sure to watch a video showing how to replace the hard drive before doing it. The last thing you need is to mess up your macbook in the process. Hope I helped you!

No, just make sure that you remove the adapter on the existing drive to use with this one.

Sorry, I don't understand the question. I don't know much about the drive. The one in my Dell Inspiron failed and this was a good economical replacement.
