that was my first thought also,but i will wait for monday and check their explanation first before making decision on the next move.thanks.

Same as my spec, mine also arrived in 8 days time... First I got the machines I upgrade it to 256GB SSD... Now it can boot in 9 sec and shut down at 3 sec... Awesome:-)

I jelly urs,for me i already purchased 02 ssd for raid 0.BUT...BUT...BUT..... my order are delayed

Jelly, provide me your email through PM or your name for the order. I check for u

Bro what good ssd tht you all recomend for m14x

Actually no point having RAID 0 for SSD....u didnt gain much performance increase beside benchmarking scoring.....and RAID 0 got higher risk...bcoz any one of your SSD got disk error...the whole system will be corrupted....bear in mind

just need the space to be big enough and faster,really hate seperate partition.my previous laptop also raid0 ssd.never had issue and i believe alienware is a good system that deserve the best component in it,burn my. pocket a bit but well worth the satisfaction in my opinion,but of course other people have other idea and criteria so its a personal choice for me.

but thanks for the reminder,will monitor if any.thanks again.

Wanted some advise, what ram can I use for mx17 r4? I don't want to spend too much upgrading at the Dell website. Any brand suggestions?

Going with the lowest hd/ram configuration if possible.

PMed putochip123 already? I'm sure he has alot of useful advices

No, haven't yet. I'll do that. Thanks

any SATA6 SSD would be nice, recommand corsair Force 3, or Samsung PM830

hi bro how long it took for delivery? im ordering now but im leaving to singapore on 1 august

I wan to buy Crucial M4 but so rare in Malaysia..... It's cheaper than a lot of SSDs.............

True. went to lowyat mall with my friend. others dont even know what crucial M4 is.. hahah.. so we ended up with Corsair Force 3 120gb

Thanks putochip , ur the best

go for force3 would be better

How fast is booting when using msata 32 gb?

as long as SSD, the speed would be below 30 seconds for sure(included bios, and sata load up)

$$$$

Guys, when did you guys purchase your M14X R2 and when did you receive it?

I bought mine on 25th Jun, until now still havent receive mine! The expected date changed 3 times, from 8th Jul, to 16th Jul & now to 24th Jul...

Really outrageous!
