QUOTE(eugenechiuu @ Feb 1 2011, 12:08 PM) What do u expect of Acer Malaysia?? Neh, I was referring to all brands... I don't think they update as fast as the people here This just happened yesterday and the only SB laptop they have currently is only 5750G... Compared to their many other laptops, they would be least concern about this..   Its going to be a problem that they're going to have to handle eventually  |

are SATA ports 2~5 being used in Acer 5750G laptop?
it seems if it is just using ports 0 and 1, then it should be fine. |

QUOTE(astria @ Feb 1 2011, 10:40 AM) i doubt resellers are bothered with this... do u think they really care? Of course they care, Mucro does. They've been great with replies to me about this.u dun buy there's still thousands who dun know abt the issue and went ahead to buy... seriously i can foresee 1yr down the road ppl complaining their Sandy Bridge laptops breaking down... They'll keep me informed. Plus Sager has halted shipments of laptops because of this problem. |
