For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.The hard disk that comes in these external boxes is a "standard" hard drive so you should be able to remove it from the external case and put it in your PC.
BUT have you any experience of opening up PC cases and making changes.
Do you know where and how to fix the hard drive inside the case ?
Do you know where to get the power from ?.
Have you a spare ICE connector inside the case ?
Is it going to be the master or slave drive ?
Do you know how to switch it from master to slave or vice versa ?.
Make sure you know what you are doing before you start.
