QUESTION ONE:-

I want to use my system for android development, for that, I have to use an emulator for android development.

Below is the Hard Drive that I am using currently:-
- Spindle Speed7200 rpm

I believe you (under different name) asked similar question yesterday but only for 8GB. Yes, you should be able to upgrade to 16GB using

A2: NO, your HDD stays the same. Upgrading RAM won't effect HDD on your machine.
