I have a few spare western digital 1tb 2.5in USB externals lying around. If I tear them apart there is Sata connection. Can I take this xhd and swap it with the current internal Mac hd reformat and enjoy a larger hd? Or do I need a specific hd to put in a Mac?

You failed to mention which Mac model and year you have.
