The only issue you will encounter is if you want to use both the 750gb and the ssd, you will have to find a bracket/caddy for it, and not in stock atm, not that expensive though like $20, but hard to get them in stock.

Ram memory is soldered so it is unexpandable. You'd have to purchae the variant with 8GB by default. SSD is mSata so you can expand manually.

No idea but Google around. I see lots of comments about SSD and RAID setups on the net. Good luck!

I installed a Samsung 840 products ssd and it works great. Also, the included ram is inaccessible, however there are 2 empty slots easily accessible to add up to 8 more gb.

Nope. Your XBOX doesn't have the functionality that can format and set up the drive by itself. It will be on SATA I or II most likely and terrible controllers that will gain nothing from the SSD. Plus, with TRIM it will kill the SSD slowly and you won't have nearly as much storage for the money using an SSD. Don't do it; it won't work.

I wouldnt! I think it is used for cache and is software and hardware based. You would probably waste it. You need to look further but I though about buying a 256GB SSD for $120 on sale and replace the 500GB spinning drive with the new SSD and let it still cache if it likes I guess??? not sure lol.

No reason why you shouldn't use this along side a standard SSD. I would use the SSD as the boot drive though.

Hi, I'm Jewel with Kingston Technical Support, here to help. The Desktop Upgrade kit would not be adequate fo upgrading a Notebook. We do offer Notebook Upgrade kits which include a USB enclosure so both the SSD and original can be connected to the system at the same time.

For any further assistance, please call us at 1-800-435-0640 (USA and Canada only) M - F 6am - 6pm PT and I or another available Technician will assist you. Thank you for selecting Kingston as your upgrade partner.

I don't believe it is possible as the footprint of the SSD drive is different from that of a SATA drive..

You can swap it out for a SSD, but just make sure you have a copy of all the drivers and some back-up discs of the OS.

I am a Mac user. For PC, go into the BIOS preferences by pressing F2 during the boot time and this will open the boot disk priority. Set your SSD as number 1 and it should work. Hope that helps. Good luck.

Yes, I did put an SSD in and it works! I bought it in mid 2013 and prices were pretty steep then, so I bought a SanDisk 64 GB Solid State Drive with Low Power Consumption SDSSDP-064G-G25 (on Amazon). The issue is size, it should have the right dimensions and then it just slips right in and works.

Yes you can. Check out this post for more in-depth discussion regarding this. Page 12 has a good, step-by-step process for replacing and installing a new SSD. http://forum.notebookreview.com/acer/724622-aspire-v7-482pg-9884-a.html

Yes, you can use an ssd. Currently have a samsung EVO 1TB ssd installed. Both hdd and ssd will work just fine, I'm using both

I removed the 500G drive (it was 7200 RPM, BTW) and replaced it with a 250G SSD. Because of the fixed position of the disk connector a 3.5 to 2.5 adapter doesn't fit. I just plugged the SSD in and secured it with a couple pieces of tape. Since it lies flat, it's not going anywhere. I loaded a pre-release copy of Windows 10 on the SSD and have been running it for a couple months. Not a gaming rig, but a good general purpose unit. Boots fast, very stable. When Win. 10 is released I'll put the 500G disk back and run the upgrade so I'll have a genuine licensed copy.

I am also looking for the memory upgrade. If someone who has done this could post details, I would be eternally grateful! Not a member of the geek sqad so I am not sure how to go about it - is there a specific type to buy and how do you instal it?
