great to hear that you have decided on the switch..

not sure about that program that you're referring to... what's the problem? error? did u check the firewall settings..
make sure u install an anti-virus if u use any of these player...

i would also suggest to remove all bloatwares...

Yes, LiteOn write speed is too slow!

I am used to 600MB/s Read, 550MB/s Write SSD

How u did that? Where can do this service?

I can do this, just pass me your old SSD and new SSD

Btw, Sandisk


Although it's slower than my OCZ Vertex 4 but I am more than happy than the LiteOn

I found out is my school wifi blocked many programs. everything is fine

Hi,

Some more questions:

- How is the pen performance for (a) writing and (b) drawing?

- Where's the best place in KL to get a new SSD?

- What do you do with your old SSD?

Thanks!

Can it run Photoshop smoothly? But only simple image editing la. That's my main concern. Plan to use it to replace my Zenbook UX21 cos thought I can also use it to give one-to-one presentations. Don't do any gaming so that's not a source of concern.

Edit:
By the way, just realized that the stand cannot be flipped to the front so the keyboard cannots to the bottom of the screen direct. It won't feel too loose if placed on the lap? And not too "close" to the screen, given the keyboard's kinda short.

u can check the cpu specs .. if the zenbook is i5 one.. .m-5y10 probably performed better..

I don't have photoshop.. so can't really test it.. gimp runs fine..
as well as visual studio ..

the keyboard has magnet that stick to the stand..
i don't have any problem typing while its in laptop mode.. or browsing in the stand mode..
its best to try out yourself ..

I don't suppose there's anywhere really recommended to go to buy this, but anywhere NOT recommended to go?

Is the default SSD really that bad? Cos if its about space I also don't mind getting an additional SD card. If replace the SSD then the old one wasted?

I am using it for simple work. I find d space so far ok. Not like I will install a lot program on it. I use a 32gb microsd card as additional memory.

Anyway I used it to play dota 2. So far so good. No lag and it's enjoyable

You can use the old SSD as USB drive boot and it will give you additional 100GB with additional OS

Bought the Switch 12 yday from Lowyat. 2249.

Realize one thing I'm gonna miss (as compared to my Zenbook) is the ability to charge my phone with the laptop closed (but plugged in). And speaking of plug, the power brick is more of a brick than that of the Zenbook.

Anyway, gotta start getting familiar with it. The power switch seems a little sensitive though. Kinda easy to accidentally turn on.

Sounds interesting. I looked for instructions on the web but couldn't find any, do you have a link on how to do this?

Where's a good place to buy a new ssd and approximate prices?

Before you boot, go into Boot menu and select boot from USB.

how to make the ssd in to a usb drive...need to insert in an adapter?

Gotta format as NTFS? I realized it being formatted as NTFS (bought a 64GB SanDisk Ultra), when inserted into my other laptop using a card reader/adapter (whatever you call it), it's somehow not recognized properly.

Or is it some prob with my card reader/adapter (as in that it only recognizes FAT32 or till a certain size)? Just read online that Android doesn't support NTFS so I shouldn't even bother inserting my Note 3 to try there.

Btw, sorry for the noob questions.
