Hi Everyone,
I have just installed WD-1tb HDD extracted from Canon CS100 in my laptop. I saw many people purchased it and after trying to find the proper use of Canon CS100 without a Canon Camera, it seemed a waste of money. So I have found a way by which you can take out that HDD from the device and install it in your computer.
1. Take out the HDD from the device by removing all 12 screws.
2. Remove the HDD from your computer/laptop and plug-in the WD HDD in the port.
3. Plug-in bootable pendrive consisting win7/win10(preferred).
4. Load up the BIOS and boot through pen drive.
5.When you’re asked what hard drive to install to, press Shift+F10 and a Command Prompt window will appear.
6. Enter the following commands:
DISKPART
LIST DISK
SELECT DISK #(Where # is the number you saw in the previous step)
CLEAN
CONVERT MBR
CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY SIZE=993000
FORMAT FS NTFS LABEL “SYSTEM” QUICK
7. Close the Command Prompt, refresh the installer window and it should show the new partition layout. Select the
partition you created to install Windows 7 or 10.
8. Now the File System of the HDD is converted to NTFS.
9. Select the drive——>Delete the partion—→Click New—→Enter drive storage {e.g. 990000MB}
10. Click Next and the system will be installed in the primary drive which you just made.

I’m afraid its not possible in your laptop because it uses eMMc storage cards while canon cs100 has HDD. So your machine cannot plugin HDD’s in it.
