    If I got a Sony Z with SSD, can the SSD be swapped with a Hard Drive? And would the SSD then fit other laptops? (i.e. sell off the SSD.)

    Thanks,
    UL

    From what I have read yes you can - SSD to HDD and HDD to SSD.

    So how do I tell if a model I'm looking has a single SSD 2.5" or two 1.8" SSD?

    Thanks,
