Does this laptop have any SSD cache in the hard drive?

No there is not. I'm not an expert in hardware but I believe noticed that there is a slot for cache memory but it is empty. It fits the msata mini half-size ssd by the looks of it.

I don't believe that it does. The hard drive I purchashed runs flawlessly though.

Yes it is. I am not sure how SSD improves the whole performance of this computer, but I can say that booting speed is way faster than other non SSD laptop.

No, Hyper X SSD only comes with SSD, an installation tray, screws, & warranty/manual. In regards to ExpressCache software, its not really necessary. However once you install the SSD simply go to Kingston Hyper X website for more information & drivers. Most ExpressCache options can be found in your PC's BIOS menu anyway.

Yes, it does. I am delighted with the computer. The screen quality is outstanding and the system is extremely fast with the SSD. It takes about 2-3 sec for a cold boot and 1-2 sec to start up a browser.

The ssd is within the hard drive. Is uses as cache for os and applications.

Yes, it does. I called Amazon who confirmed with Dell, so I ordered it and saw for myself that this model does indeed include the 32gb ssd.

Hi, yes it does. In fact mine died only one year after I bought it due to overheating. Couldn't get warranty replacement (due to the fact that went down a week after the warranty expired). So I wouldn't recommend this laptop at all. Nor this one o any other Toshiba laptop.

Dear Mr. Harris thanQ for your enquiry and the Thoshiba 128GB Q series Pro was replaced in my above mention laptop perfectely and working well. This new SSD Drive is running more speed than my old 500 GB mechanical drive after cloning on Windows 7 OS. Now I am using my old drive as external drive for the same laptop pc.

even if it is possible, i wouldn't do that, the ram and processor are soldered, and is probable that they don't match the electronic and physical charactaristics of the laptop's mainboard, lost of warranty, etc... maybe a better idea for improving performance is change the mechanical hard drive for a ssd, it's effective, quicker, simpler and cheaper

This laptop has two drive bays. I installed a 500Gb SSD as the primary drive and moved the OE 1Tb drive to the secondary bay for data. Works great.

The one we purchased did not have ssd like the one posted, everything else was the same. It's been a great machine.

Yes. Very good computer. Hard drive upgraded to SSD and it became very fast.

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.
