This laptop does not have dual hard drive. You can remove your old hard drive and copy to your new 256GB SSD and replace it. If you have any questions or comments you can email me at [email protected] which I reside in the U.S

ASUS strives to meet and exceeds our customer expectations within our warranty policy.

Have a great weekend.
