Yes I'm sure it would work, but it has to be powered still. I would just get an external disk drive though.

You could connect it to the SATA port on a mainboard with an adapter cable, but I don't know what kind of thru put you would get.SATA to eSATA Cable

Yes, the connector is compatible. The drive will operate correctly but at USB 2.0 transfer rates.

Works with any laptop that uses a 2.5 sata hd. Most laptop have an adapter that connects to the drive to connect to the motherboard. If you are replacing a drive u can use the adapter from the old drive.

As long as that laptop model takes SATA hard drives - just look up the above laptop model specs

You can use any Sata drive. They must be the same size. If they're dissimilar sizes it will only be as large as the smallest drive. So far it's worked flawlessly

This is a standard USB to standard SATA adapter, so the size of the drive shouldn't matter. This should work just fine for you.

Yes it has a SATA connection as that is the interface it is designed to use. For further details go to OEM website: http://www.asus.com/us/Optical_Drives/DRW24B3ST/

You don't This is meant to be an internal drive for a desktop computer and doesn't come with the necessary cabling to interface with a USB port on your laptop. There are sata to USB adapters you can purchase but it is an added expense. Retry. The drive and get an external DVD burner and you will not have as much equipment to haul around and easier to use

I don't know. I am unsure if the adapter I had works properly. Your system sees something, but if you reformat, you will lose the info on the drive.

You can use a Sabrent USB 2.0 to SATA hard drive adapter to connect it or similar.

The answer is yes. There is a USB connector, but if that does not work you can turn the box upside down and connect with the SATA interface directly.

I don't use it for connect hard drive, but the voltage and ampers maybe working with it,, so there are another solution for connect hardrive. for example SATA/PATA/IDE Drive to USB Adapter Converter

Yes you should be able too. I will warn you that you still need to have power to the HDD as well as the small four pin power connector on the adapter.

Your answer to both is yes because SATA is Serial ATA drive. Happy hunting.
