There is really no need to update. Windows 8 is not finished OS as you can see from changes made by Microsoft when going from 8 to 8.1. If you have Windows 7, there is no point for you to update. If you have 8, read reviews because 8.1 causes some problems with certain applications and drivers.
It depends on type of Windows 8 installer. If it is update, you need Windows OS preinstalled. If it is full installer, you can install it on a bard hard drive.
You cannot, but you don't have to mind it as Windows 8 automatically comes up if you don't choose Windows 7 in 30 secs in start up. It's useful cause you can always come back to it.
