If you're looking for more storage space you will have to go with a bigger size hard drive than this 240GB. In all laptops you can only install one hard drive versus a desktop where you can install multiple if the motherboard allows with its connections. If you want more space go bigger.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Most Laptops only have space for one Hard Drive. Some have the option to remove the CD Drive and buy a Caddy to go in that space, which would allow for 2 Drives. I personally would just buy a single drive that is big enough to fit your needs
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, you would need to remove the existing drive to install a new one unless this laptop has two drive bays (I doubt it).
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No. I believe that the Latitude has room for only one internal hard drive. You will not be able to "merge" the two drives into one. You will need to get at least a 480GB drive to give you the space you're looking for.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Your best bet is to buy a larger SSD as the price's on them are great right now. Use the software to image the new SSD that comes with it.
