You will have to refer to the manual that came with it, a list of hard drives are listed. Steve

Yes we can upgrade the current HDD to 1 TB hard drive, we are an authorized Panasonic reseller with techs on staff to work on Tough Books. Thanks,

Couple of approaches I'd suggest: go to the Toshiba Support site for your laptop (it requires a serial or model number - the C675-7106 number did not work for me) and look for hard drive specs and, potentially, a list of compatible replacement internal hard drives. You could also go to Crucial.com and work with their site or tech support to find out which hard drives are compatible with your laptop. I have found Crucial to be very reliable on ensuring replacement RAM and storage they sell is compatible with your hardware.

I don't know. The hard drive I bought was brand new. You could contact them and ask.

You'll need to ask Buffalo. The hardware device is reported as "gendisk" (generic disk) by my Device Manager. The only way I could establish which manufacturer made my Drive Station hard disk would be to remove the cover. Obviously I don't want to do that. Many computer and peripheral manufacturers change their hard drive providers (bidding for cost-savings) during the manufacturing runs of their devices so you have to ask Buffalo to be sure about what you will get. I can tell you that mine has been a sturdy and reliable drive regardless of what is inside it.

You can use windows backup to backup your entire harddrive including the hidden recovery partition to a 16gb flash drive. Then use that drive to boot and recover your hdd in the event of a total hdd failure. No need to buy a new OS or send in to Asus

Typical you would want a Western Digital purple drive. You can try this drive. It should work tho.

I would recommend using one on Thecus's compatibility list: http://www.thecus.com/download/compatibility/hdd/N4520SERIES_N2800_N4800_N4800Eco_N5550_N4510U_N7510_HDD_SSD_list.pdfAlso consider that Enterprise rated drives will last longer and potentially perform a bit faster, but might not be worth the price bump for just backups.

Hello! Yes, you can replace your HD on more capacity 2.5", SATA II hdd mobile. For example on this http://www.amazon.com/WD-AV-25-TB-Hard-Drive/dp/B007PFQ23C Or use external box HDD for mobile with USB 2,3 standart Here is a video with instructions to replace HDD for this PC https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8l8cy4-i0QE

No it's a blank hard drive. You will need to format to what ever operating system u are using.

The Dell Support website (support.dell.com) has service manuals for all its laptops (downloadable for free). You can just download the manual for this one. That will give you step-by-step instructions on how to replace the hard drive. Just buy a replacement drive, any size you want, and install it with the instructions in the manual.

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?

I would suggest you visit the thecus website, find the unit you are interested in and then look up the HDD compatibility for the drives you are thinking about. I would recommend you pick enterprise type disks and buy a spare additional disk of the same kind to have on the shelf in case one fails.

Any external USB hard drive can be used via the USB ports, the seagate HD is necessary to for the "convenient" slide in interface (it still leaves both USB ports open)
