Is this an internal drive?

That is where MOST people would of course use it...AND...make it your boot drive!!You can of course get cards with external SATA connectors or a SATA to USB cable if you really want to make it external and you can walk around with a super over-sized thumb drive in your pocket. If you want that, just buy a small high speed 128GB USB thumb drive :)

Yes. OS independent. You will want to format it for the OS you will be using but the drive will accommodate either.

This is an internal drive and needs to be installed inside your pc tower. It is not an external drive that can be plugged into a USB port as a back up drive.

I'm able to use this drive as external drive and internal. You need to install the connector based on your application.

Yes, that is what we have ours connected to. You may have to reformat the drive by using disk utilities.

No, unfortunately not. An external drive is pretty cheap. I bought one when I bought the computer.

This is not an internal or external hard drive. It is an external casing. So it does not matter what the OS is as long as you have USB support, the enclosure should work.

Its an internal drive. It comes with brackets to screw it on inside the computer case.

Yes, it is like a normal drive with 32Gb of storage. It can just connect to a micro-usb port also.

None but its independent of the os so it should function like any other jump drive

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

Is there any software on the internal memory that will be erased if I format the drive?

Well, it could be both. I bought it as a replacement for the 80GB internal drive in my Dell Latitude notebook. I mirrored the existing drive to the new one, and it then became a plug-and-play replacement, as the OS and all files and applications were moved, making it an identical drive with more free space. That said, it could be installed in an external housing and connected through a USB connection to use as an additional drive.

Yes it is! Exactly what I bought it for, my new laptop doesn't have a drive. This is a good drive.

No the drive is completely enclosed, but you should check to see if your unit is EIDE (ATA) or SATA (serial ATA) adapters are available should you need one.

Yes, it is very easy. You can go on youtube to see a video on how to install a internal hard drive.
