Is it possible to get this with a ssd / what is the ratio of hdd to ssd

I have not seen it with strictly a ssd hard drive. I will say this though..... It works similarly to an ssd. things that you would want to operate very quickly ( like your operating system) are stored in the ssd portion, while data that doesn't need to accessed quickly/often are stored on the hd portion. Personally, I think it works very well and I'm quite pleased with it. Plus, you're not stuck with the crap Windows 08 OS. Additionally, it makes the laptop cheaper by operating the way it does. A co-worker of mine has a custom built laptop with much better hardware (including the ssd hard drive) and it's not terribly faster than this one.

Hi, No, you need to buy the hard drive separately. You can choose freely if you want HDD og SSD drives - but I can highly recommend SSD :-)Cheers

Hello Pedro, you can install any current SSD size, I would recommend 128 or 256 GB better, thanks.

Yes you can. You can add the SSD to the drive bay from the front of the system which is pretty awesome. I tried the hard way and well failed because of the OS i was trying with. But since then I've left the OS on the main drive which is fast... And everything that's important gets installed on my SSD and it's fast.

Hello. Ive purchased and currently own this product. This computer has SSD of 256GB and you can use slightly less than that. (The model that is described here) Thank you and let me know if you have any question!

I have no idea, I have the 500 GB HDD version, not the lower storage capacity SSD version.

Yes. I suspect you will have to format the SSD. Use the enclosed CD with the kit.

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.

Yes, this is only the case, you will have to buy the sata disk (HDD of SDD). Remember to get the correct height for it, if not do what I did, I just had a 1TB drive, install it and put tape around it to keep it secure until I get a new drive with the correct height.//

Yes those are all pretty universal these days so by all means feel free to upgrade to SSD :) Enjoy :)

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??

I haven't done that so I can't completely answer but really any SSD should work in it. This laptop really boots up fast compared to a regular HD. I suspect it is one of the new hybrids.

Yes you can. here is a link to see what kind of SSD drive available for this laptop http://drivesolutions.com/cgi/shop/ug2store.cgi?command=listitems&kind=hpl&pos=0&type=itemid&itemid=hpl283 Good luck, this laptop totally worth it.

Not easily, if at all. There are no visible screws (there may be some hidden underneath the foot pads) and the only visible seam runs around the top edge. It would be lovely to be able to pop in a SSD but @ 7200 RPM it's a great little drive for the price.

Hard drive is only 5400, but Windows boots much faster than I imagined and the laptop comes with 2 drive bays, so you can throw in a SSD in it's SATA 3 port if you wanted.

I don't think that you can order it configured with an SSD, but it would be easy to purchase your favorite SSD and replace the HDD in the computer after it arrives. This computer has a lid on the bottom which makes it easy to access the drive.

The SSD is SATA3. One is a piece of hardware, the other is the way it connects to the computer. #lmgtfy
