I think upgrading to msata is very worth it........... If can, i will also get it for my M14x R1 but it's not compatible.......! cry.gif  cry.gif

SSD too expensive but it's worth it.... Maybe get it in my future Alienware.......! thumbup.gif

yeah...u n me have same thought...later on when i have extra budget i will upgrade to ssd... rolleyes.gif


back to the msata...
from my reading msata is same with ssd...msata is small size...am i correct...?
so msata will boost my performance compare to traditional hdd...correct me if im wrong ok...?
do u guys know what brand msata will i get from dell...? icon_question.gif

You better buy now before they start changing the price. It won't be any cheaper than this, I can guarantee you that.

This is the cheapest price Dell MY ever offered for M17x since the first generation of M17x.
