Is the 24GB SSD upgradeable to a more normal say 240GB or 1/2 TB SSD?

Yes, it is upgradeable to 240/500GB M2 SSDs, but you need to void the warranty (as it requires modification of the internal hardware and opening the computer) and requires some configuration from the HDD, so it is possible a clean install of Windows may be required after modification to accomodate the new SSD drive.

Current I have a 125gb ssd drive. 500gb ssd was not available when I purchased it. I suppose you could put one in.

It has a single 204-pin SODIMM slot for RAM, so it can be expanded if you're tech-savvy. However, you'll have to discard the 2GB DIMM that comes in it because there's only one slot. I believe the SSD can also be upgraded.

I just opened mine to put 2x4GB SODIMMs into it ... nope. It is NOT user-upgradeable. Memory chips are soldered on. SSD is mSATA so in the future you could presumably upgrade it to 256GB, but the memory is not upgradeable in this at all. Live and learn.

The 24GB SSD is not available as a separate drive - it is for internal operating system use only and not accessible to the user or visible on the device summary.

No chance of swapping the ram, that is soldered to the board. You can if you are extremely motivated change the SSD (NGFF, M.2), good luck finding one though, they are as of April 2014 only available to manufacturers...

Yes, it can be upgraded. There is a second SSD slot in my NP930. I added a 512GB M.2 SATA SSD.

I do not see the point of changing the one it has already for the one you mentioned, because both are hybrids and the hybrids have a flaw when we talk about proper speed. Change for a proper SSD (http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-MZ-7TD250BW-Solid-State-2-5-Inch/dp/B009NHAEXE/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1373543806&sr=1-2&keywords=samsung+ssd) than it will make a lot of difference on speed (boot up time and every day use). If you need more space, use an external drive for storage.

RAM on this unit is soldered to the motherboard. No user upgrade possible. But you could upgrade the drive (SSD).

Upgrading is possible. I just changed my HDD to an SSD. now it is super fast. Memory upgrade is also possible. though apple recommends only upto an 8GB, people have proved that it can really be upgraded to a 16GB. 128 GB SSD cost 50+ USD where as an 8GB(2x4) cost nearly 70 USD or less.

Can't say for certain, however, I recently cloned an 80gb SSD to a 240 using it without a hitch, very straightforward and simple to use.

Hi, I have not had occasion to try, so I can't answer the question first-hand. Here is a link that says the RAM is all soldered (not upgradeable) and that the SSD form factor is not one of the usual commercial standards. http://www.legitreviews.com/article/1903/3/ There are different hardware versions and revisions, so your mileage may vary, but I would assume not (easily) on both counts.

I'm pretty sure that you can replace the 128GB SSD with a larger MSATA SSD. I have not done it myself, but I opened up the laptop and saw the MSATA that's in there. I didn't see any place to put an additional internal drive.

I haven't tried to but Crucial sells 240gb 2.5 inch internal SSD for this computer for about 125 bucks. Is this what you mean??

Yes, provided the amout of data to be cloned/transferred from the HDD does not exceed the capacity of your SSD.

there is 24gb of RAM installed upgradeable to 32gb. is there currently an open slot for the additional 8gb or will i have to toss out all 24gb in there and buy 32gb of RAM for the upgrade?

There is also an msata slot occupied by a 24Gb SSD used as a boost drive. The msata drive can be replaced with a larger one and used as the boot drive. This tool can be used to copy the OS to the msata SSD easily. http://www.paragon-software.com/technologies/components/migrate-OS-to-SSD/
