Single or dual hard drive? Does this have 2 125GB hard rives or one single one?The Asus netbooks had 2 80GB HD.

I'm pretty sure it has just one hard drive. I don't think they could physically fit a second hard drive into a netbook as it is. I had an ASUS Eee PC 1000HA which had two partitions, each at about 80GB. Once I installed Linux, only one hard drive was detected with a capacity of about 149GB, so there was one hard drive in that netbook.

If you see a capacity then that is drive that is installed. A 2TB has a 2TB drive installed. It is easy to install a drive if you get the 0 drive and have a laptop drive to install. The sync unit is just the network adapter and you connect your usb drive to it so you can have any size of drive. I have both and they are great. When I purchased mine I got the 2 TB and it was cheaper as I could not find a good price on 2TB laptop drives. That may have changed since I pay the early adopter price.

Wow, at 2terrabyte why is that even an issue?? I have no idea.. Just use a huge external hard drive and it should be almost limitless. All I know is that 2tb seems like plenty, at least for me. In four years of many photos, I didn't even fill 250gig on my laptop that was my main computer at the time. I do like this all in one, tho it isn't quite as fast as I had hoped it would be. And I prefer the Windows seven side to the childish eight side. Love the large screen. Overall..I would recommend it..the storage should be plenty especially for a home computer.

2 750 gb drives. They perform best a 7200 rpm drive can. Easily swappable for ssd.

Thanks for your reply. I think I'll spend the extra $ for the larger hard drive (and better warrenty even though Asus had the best reliability rating of most other laptops so probably won't need it). I am replacing my ancient Toshiba Satellite and think the Asus is a better value.

Question what is the difference between a netbook and a laptop?There are many differences. To list a few would be the lack of a CD/DVD drive, smaller screen size, smaller "chicklet" keyboards, lower end graphics and processors, netbooks also have less storage space around 160GB and also have less RAM 1GB is standard. You can find many laptops for around 399$ that can be upgraded and are better. It all depends on what you "the buyer" want and need.

I ordered the 2TB model, and it came without a drive. I imagine that there is something incorrectly listed in the 2TB model listing.

there's only room for one laptop 2.5 size drive. It comes with a motherboard so if you want to keep your current windows installation that's on the drive you are putting in, it may, or may not work.

I've heard yes. However, it takes 32 gig - not much room to actually run any other programs or store files once all is said and done. I didn't get a chance to find out because mine died about 2 weeks ago. Working off a laptop until I decide what to do. Not sure I'm blaming ASUS for that one as I go through machines very fast, lucky if I get 2 years out of anything...

There is space for two full sized hard drives. One is in the laptop and the other is in the hot swap device, which can be used instead of the disc drive. There are also two mSATA drive ports which will only fit mSATA drives and not full sized drives.

Netbooks don't have disc drives for CDs. I bought an external drive but never use it. I usually find an ISO for anything I want to install or I make an ISO on my other computer and share it.

I bought 4 of these: Seagate 1TB Laptop HDD SATA 6Gb/s 8MB Cache 2.5-Inch Internal Drive Retail Kit (STBD1000100) They were on-sale at the time for $69. You should be able to find something with equivalent stats for around that price.

I've seen the same way of describing the ssd in other computers and they only contain 1 ssd drive. On the Sony website there is no mention of 2 separate hard drives. I am reasonably sure this model only has a I7 2.0 ghz processor and 1 256 gb ssd. I'm ordering one today. I was confused at first also

I see the 8 GB HD part on the Summary, but it comes with a 16 GB HD at a minimum. I think it is just a typo in the Summary part. It depends on what selection you make for the HD as to whether it is 16 or 32 GB though. I've got the 32 GB with music, movies, magazines, photos, and books on it and I've still got plenty of disk space left. Hope this helped.

It's 1000GB HDD. I think they meant 1TB. I replaced mine with an SSD instead though. And it's 2GB Graphics Memory.

750GB. There is a similar model that has a 1TB drive, but no SSD. Somebody cut & paste the wrong stuff into the description.
