... Just called KJ service center and received a really dissatisfying answer. I want to buy an mSata SSD for my brother as a present, but one stupid sticker over a screw prevents me from installing myself (which I've already done for my own other-brand laptop).

Service center quote me at RM140 for installation labour charges! Even my car workshop also don't charge so high for 2-3 hours of work, this 5 minute task want to charge RM140.

Anyone knows how to self-install without voiding warranty?

Hahahaha biggrin.gif

It remind me a forumer mentioned he went to service center to install ram/ssd and paid RM80 at the end.

I think you can go to TechArmory to do installation, he is authorized but should be lower cost. smile.gif

Else, you will need a hair dryer icon_idea.gif

Good idea. I'll check out TechArmory. If my own laptop I'll do it myself, but since not mine....

Hi, you may also upgrade via MSI Authorized Resellers (http://bit.ly/mymsinb_wheretobuy) to enjoy warranty service.

Thanks, that's useful. I think you all should reconsider how the sticker is placed though. I'm a loyal ASUS fan and their laptops (and the Dells/Toshibas my family had before) always are capable to be opened, for those of us who know how. Warranty service also not an issue, and doesn't cost 3 digit for simple 5 minute task. How much money can you earn this way vs the customer being pissed off with your brand?
