So anyone can confirm that this laptop having keyboard lag issues? As well as the caddy case SSD with cable will decrease yhe performance by how much?

hey bro is your dell inspiron backlight keyboard? im so confuse if mine is backlight or not, because when i receive this laptop the backlight keyboard is not functioning and no logo of backlight in the F10 key so maybe mine is not backlight?

Hi,guys...
Just tried installing a second HDD using the 9.5 mm laptop caddy,but it didn't work. BIOS recognizes the HDD,but once i boot up the OS,i can't see it in My Computer or under the Disk Manager.
Can somebody confirm a successful installation of the 2nd HDD using a laptop caddy? If yes,i would appreciate the steps on how to do it.

caddy case SSD don't require a cable, it's supposed to replace ur optical drive bay.

backlight keyboard. if the F10 key doesn't have the backlight logo, i'm afraid to say urs is not the backlight model. But since ALL 14" 7000 series model have backlight, r u sure u r not confusing the 15" 7000 series with this?

BIOS said it's AHCI, RAID or Legacy mode? and the hard drive isn't plug and play: they require a format (+ the company SSD software, if any) before use. check the box or the provided manual for the SSD or HDD

I have been using Insprion 7447.
One thing I was disappointed about this product. That is the Power LED status. When the battery is fully charged - With the LED does not light no Power LED lights, I do not know my computer is in sleep or standby state.
Or when I shut down the computer also does not signal that the computer is turned off or not.

I contacted Dell support where I live. And was told that it was designed that way. I am very disappointed about this

I think they should make an update on the indicator light
where :
on sleep it blinks
fully charged longer blinks
so on and so forth
since there is only one indicator LED

hi guys, is it easy to swap out the hdd for ssd?

Hi, can any owner of this laptop check the exact IPS screen model for this laptop?

Device Manager>Monitors>[right click, select properties]>Events

It should be the string right after "Device DISPLAY/"

LOL mine is 14" dell inspiron core i7 - 4710hq maybe this model is not backlight, when i check the quick guide it mention back light keyboard is optional. and im so disappointed because the free case bag is not a backpack, mine is sling type bag

agreed. gets annoying sometimes

swapping it is easy. setting it up as boot drive is the hard part.

they are smart: there is nothing on events whatsoever. must be a move by dell so that rivals can't figure out what is their monitor.

That's funny. All Malaysian models comes with backlight. Quick guide will definitely say optional coz it's an international quick guide, hence some countries may not have it. Now, checking the exact model, i'm unsure.

you don't really need it cause SSD alone is good enough..somehow, doing it might make your system more quicker..

Mine so far has been played Crysis 3 for hours (2-3 hours straight) and my keyboard didn't encounter that problem yet..

Im getting sad ~
Cant buy Dell 7447 in time
Last time Cyntrix offer 2.2k for ARB product
and now It raised to 2.5k yet no stock
I guess I'll look after other products

I'm just placed order for this model on last Friday, the ETA date is 1.15, almost 3 weeks><
is it possible to receive it earlier as i already cant wait for it. LOL

What is ARB means?

Some sort like
Mobile phone AP Set
But published by Dell themself

I also planning to buy this model too...dun know why Dell dun let ppl custom add/upgrade the spec already...so need to contact the live chat customer service to ask for the upgrade?

This modal no more in the Dell web site.

they won't do it anymore apparently. but from what i know, it's still under warranty if u change the HDD or RAM. (unless u end up causing problems after the change) Specialty of Dell warranty.

still here la

So is it safe to buy from Cyntrix and able to claim warranty from Dell Malaysia???
