Hi, i would like to ask those of you with the M17x R4, is it very heavy to carry around? May I know how many kg is it?

I'm still deciding whether the M14x or M17x..

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

I ordered online from Dell.

The HDD problem is solved. I reattached HDD several times and then suddenly it was detected in windows installation again, and I could fix it using command prompt in windows setup cd.

It seems that the disk read error has occurred problem have various causes but at the moment it is running 2 days finely.

For the LCD, there are two lines of dead + stuck pixels, it does not look good and will take 2-3 weeks more for ETA. I dont know if they have the stock now or not, last thursday they told me it is available, but on friday it is not and have to wait until 15/8, I am of course disappointed by this, my warranty starts counting from 16/7 and the repair on new machine has to take 1 month.

otherwise it is good. I guess the hdd error has something to do with software problem, as well as activation stuff that I did. But strange thing is that i couldnt discover it in the windows setup.

But fine, with working LCD, it is a beautiful product, I like it very much.

he's good, i bought my dell latitude from him

just now it was okay, 48-52 for cpu...but when the power of the package up until >10.00W, it becomes 56-60++

actually the hdd problem was a conflict with msata caching ssd, according to the technician and they will fix it in upcoming bios. once i removed the cache, i could find the hard drive in windows setup.

for lcd, their shortage is due to many lcd problems lately. so i have to wait until somewhere in august, and they would send to singapore by postage directly to me, then i will be calling the dell technician over there.

the onsite technician is good, polite, and answers many questions.

Gratz in advance bro, how much for your M14X? Found that "Ronnie" selling quite cheap also...

How much did you get it for?

Congrat for u  what are u gettin?
