Sorry for noob question.

I found this on BingLee and thinking of getting one.

I plan to take the case off and use this internally, can it be done with this model?

If not, any other suggestion with same/cheaper price for 1TB?

Regards

its 2.5" hdd in external case, not so easy to open the case. you might be able but will break the case.
some cases they solder few things to external connector so you cant.
summary: dont take the drive out.
if you want to take out drive buy the 3.5" external drive. this one is 99% you can take it out.
but for laptop you need 2.5" like your post. for desktop you need 3.5"

HN was just selling this for $68 last couple of weeks. That sale is over now, but you can still do what the rest of us did and price match at Office Works for the 5% discount. (And a further 5% if you have the ING paywave discount)
