Is the included 120GB drive mSATA or is it a regular laptop SSD? I see the laptop supports both on System76's site.

Hello Blake, While there is a slot available for both a mSATA and a regular SSD, the 120GB Samsung 840 EVO installed on the Galago UltraPro is a regular laptop SSD. Thank you for your interest in the Galago UltraPro ad please let us know if you have any other questions.

Hi Blake. The 120GB drive included is a regular laptop SSD. You can add an mSATA drive later if you run out of storage though.

This laptop has a 500 gigabyte standard speed hard drive. It does not come with an SSD. Hope this answers your question.

It's a 320gb hard drive. The ssd refurs to the 16gb - 32gb sd card. It's on the asus website. But this guy doesn't tell you is that there isn't an operating system in the product that he is selling. All he told was he "had to listen everything from asus site". Good computer crappy seller

Yes, the mSATA SSD is SATA III. Regarding the brand, it could be A-DATA or other 1st tier brand.In MSI website they doesn't release such information.

There's no mSATA port in external chassis. Inside the laptop it should have a mSATA bracket to install mSATA SSD. We can verify with MSI next Monday.

This model does not come with msata ssd, but stay out of the inside of the machine in advance msata position. When I received the machine, I also bought 128g of msata loaded, it's running well.

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.

You know that is a excellent question. All the specs on different websites say it has a 500Gb HDD with a 32GB SSD hybrid. Although when I search through my system properties I do not see the 32GB partition listed. Do you know exactly how I would know? I would think that the model numbers specs would be universal.

It's an mSATA drive. Search for mSATA drives here on Amazon, larger capacities are available.

2 0f them are msata which only fit in a msata slot unless you have an adapter from msata to sata. The little ones are 120 GB and 240GB and the big one is a sata ssd

First of all this is an EXCELLENT SSD. The other SSD I had was a OCZ and it was not even close to this one. I do a lot of picture editing which I think this SSD drive is good for that. Right now I have 2,200 pictures on the drive plus all my programs and I still have 90GB left. I think you could get by with the 128GB but would regret it later. I would suggest the 256gb. Speed difference is the first thing you will notice! My laptop boots up in about 10-12 seconds. I think you have make an excellent choice

As one of the primary reasons for choosing this model, I can confirm it comes with a 120gb SSD. It boots on the SSD almost instantly. Very fast laptop.

The ram is soldered down so that amount you get is what you're stuck with. You can upgrade the hard drive and replace it with a solid state drive which makes the device faster, specifically the boot up time. I bought this laptop for my mom and replaced the hard drive with a Samsung 840 SSD with no issues. A SSD will also keep internal temperatures lower since the memory is flash (like your thumb drive/usb stick) vs. a hard drive which has moving parts.

This SSD is the 2.5 SATA format. For most laptops, you'd want to go with an mSATA format - that is if your laptop accepts SATA at all. Some of the older laptops have IDE format (remember the old ribbon cable). Check your laptop to be sure.Also the answer below is a good one. You can go to Crucial's website and the installed Advisor will tell you which SSD you can buy.

There seem to be different versions of the same basic model. Mine came with a 250 gb spinning platter drive. I put a 128 gb ssd in for about 80 bucks. The kit by monster made that super simple and you can reuse the software and cable for other computers. RAM seems to vary as well. I have three of these 1 from work and 2 bought used.
