Can this be used on a desktop? null

Yes, all you need are SATA data and power connections

Yes, It will work just like a large 3.5 inch drive. However, your computer case may not have a bay to mount it in. If that is the case you can either buy an adapter for under $10 that will allow you to mount the 2.5 inch drive in the 3.5 inch bay or you can just get creative. These drives are very light, so you could just let it hang by the SATA plug and power plug or use a small piece of Velcro to stick it to the case.

Yes it can. I used it for my home build. Silent, fast, and makes my machine boot up in under 10 seconds.

Yes all solid state drives can be used on a desktop. You can rig it to screw into the case or if you want to do it right you have buy an adaptor

Depends on the desktop. I used it for my hp touchscreen desktop but the specs say to use a laptop drive. You should review the specs for your specific desktop

Since the part is "PC SSD" and the description states for use in Desktops, all you may need is the adapter tray and software to copy your current OS to the SSD.
