Does anybody know if i can just "change" my notebook harddrive against a SSD drive?
For example, can I put this Intel 510 Serie Elm Crest SSD into [this ASUS X7BSV-TY074V notebook?

Generally speaking, yes. As long as it's a SATA connection and your notebook has space for a standard 2.5" drive then you should be fine. It's important to note, however, that the new drive won't have an OS on it and may not be formatted with the correct filesystem for whatever OS you'll be using it for (ntfs, hfs+, ext4, etc.). | |||

You should be able to, provided that the replacement is 2.5 inches. You;ll also need to check that your current hard drive is SATA (i.e. not IDE/SCSI) as the one in the link is a SATA drive. | |||
