Can you change the hard drive and memory inside?

Yes but you might lose warranty and if the OS installed is not 64 bit, you wont be able to see the difference after 4gb of RAM

changing the drive is easy, any SSD SATA would do. I would go about 250g or bigger if you can afford it. Don't forget to clone from the original to get all the proper drivers .

Unless you are skilled in disassembling a notebook, you should not try to change the drive. I changed the drive on my MacBook Pro with great difficulty but it's possible.

yes- there are two slots for RAM- see youtube videos on how to access memory and replace it.... SD

I believe you can. However, there is only one slot of ram and it is occupied with the 4GB dim so you can only replace it with a 8GB dim and that is the most this computer accepts.

Yes, you can. I did that with my W-530. The way that I did it was to buy all new memory so it was matched, so I put in 4 8GB sticks and took out the memory that came with the machine. This way I had all matched memory.

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.

If you know your pc you can get inside and change the memory space to the biggest you can afford

Yes the ram can be changed. Th graphics can be changed but the card would take an expansion slot unless you purchase the pc without the integrated video card.

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

to my knowledge it is not possible to upgrade the memory. upgrading the hard drive is extrem expensive because asus uses its own SATA type.you better buy a zenbook with 256GB hard drive (they are available for around 1000 USD)

yes, you can plug a new or unformatted HDD in and (re)format it to your specs

You can swap it out for a SSD, but just make sure you have a copy of all the drivers and some back-up discs of the OS.

Yes you can change them in the settings. However i cant tell you how because i gave the computer back within the same week due to how slow it ran with the internet

Yes that is possible. The harddisk is accessable and replaceable. If you want you can also add it to the machine. However there is no mounting bracket for it. So you would have to get creative. But there are enough sata ports.

Yes... And, this is easily accessible, all you have to do is unscrew one screw at the bottom of your laptop and, vola, every component that you can change is there, including the 2 full size hard disk bays.

Are you asking about the actual hard drive inside the storage module? According to the Seagate forums while it is designed to be a "no user serviceable parts inside" component, it is technically possible to crack open the module and put in a new hard disk, but not recommended unless you REALLY know what you are doing. As for swapping out the storage module itself with a new one from the same model GoFlex, that's easy. Just pop the old one off and put a new one in.
