Hi sifus,

Planning to grab a Y510P at the end of this month.

Would like to clarify something from everyone here.

The plan:
- Install an SSD as the main drive, migrate Windows 8 to SSD and then use the 1TB HDD (in Ultrabay + HDD caddy) as a secondary drive for data.
- A dual-boot setup with Ubuntu 13.10 for work (Windows for play).

My question on this regard would be the SSD installation itself on our locally distributed Y510Ps:
I see some suggested to get the MyDigitalSSD 128GB 42mm SATA III 6G M.2 NGFF SSD. I've seen some great reviews there. Then there's the Samsung Electronics 840 EVO-Series 120GB 2.5-Inch SATA III.
- Would I be able to install the Samsung one to our machines, or is it only possible to install the MyDigitalSSD M2?

Thanks, all!

Thanks, tachlio.
Yup, I was actually contemplating between the two. I've read rave reviews for the Samsung, so I was geared for that. Then, I read PennzoilGuy offered the MyDigitalSSD as an option. So, I was just confused by both, really.

Yea, the Samsung Evo needs a SATA-3 port to function at its best capability. A question: the internal HDD is on SATA-3, or the laptop has the SATA-3 port itself?
