SSD +HDD with caddy bay also got 2 hard drive what.... lol

m4 la between those 2 choice...

m4 should compete with samsung 830 and vertex 4

yea lor... wasted i didnt get from u

wait till expired with... then get wse, hate mccafee

use hw64, i think will mention

then odd out liao lor... side bo cantik liao lor

so, i was wondering, is there any major/minor problem with y580? because i'm thinking of buying it :s

thx

get dirty very fast, especially to oil stains, power socket hole on the right side.. speaker no subwoofer...

Speaker no subwoofer still no cause a problem....
Can always get a better speaker/headset if u really want bass

oh okay. thx. so basically there's no problem with anything inside the laptop? because i thought i read before there's problem with the broadcom? and some problem with the drivers installed in y580. is it true?

yeah. that's what i noticed! it was mcafee all along. WTF! but still the wireless signal strength is quite low because this one is 2 antenna model. other wifi n comes with 3.



i dont think you need a new driver. i uninstalled mcafee and the wifi issue ok already.

Added on September 20, 2012, 5:40 amdriver is not an issue for me. the broadcom issue is because of the mcafee antivirus. i uninstalled it and the wifi cantik already.

so many thing mcafee load during startup. refer to picture attached.

and i have called lenovo support center. they mentioned to me i can ask the technician to change my wifi card to another manufacturer one if the problem persist.
just bring my laptop to plaza ibm near one utama there then can already.

Nope, I uninstalled McaFee the 1st day I got this notebook.

I tried to reformat and re-install win7 as well. But still can only get max 72mbps only.

While my 4.5 years old Dell can easily get 150mbps on the same wireless router.

Can you check the wireless model on the device manager ?
And also check the wireless setting, change the 20MHz to auto if available.

u can use caddy off course.
but?
1.usse cddy ur overall cost higher than single msata
2. most dvd's sata is 3gb. means can put hdd only
3. qualiyyty of ur caddy determine how high ur hd temp will be
4. msara just plug in and screw it. gaodim. why choose a more complicate method?

jus 2cent

so, this problem is because of the bad design of the card or just driver incompatible >

i think they move the hdd to odd using caddy is to solve the heat problem...

Added on September 20, 2012, 1:06 pmto avoid it getting dirty, i bought a piece of laptop protector (rm5? 10? forgot) and stick it on the top cover - solved. abt subwoofer - so far i know only Asus N56 got, which else laptop give you subwoofer wan? also, even if you have one, will you actually lug it around everywhere u go? actually, the speakers of Y480/580 are one of the best already on laptop, other than Asus N56.
