Is the laptop sold as is? I mean, can I buy an upgraded version with two SSDs with 256MB GB each, or 32GB RAM?

These are sold with the specs listed here. We have also listed customized models with upgrades. We do have one with 32GB RAM and 2x256GB mSATA SSD http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JJYA4BI. If you have other customization requests feel free to send us a message and we can list it on Amazon for you.

If you order it, check the model that arrives. Mine didn't have the SSD. I called Amazon and sent it back for one with the SSD. Waiting on the replacement...EDIT - its there, just not user accessible, see below:

No idea -- it ships with two SSD drives that equal roughly 250GB of storage. I was wondering that too when I bought it, but it seems that whoever wrote the page made a mistake.

Frank, it has both. The SSD is a 20GB and is for cache purposes. Look at the link and click on specifications. It has all of the info. that the listing should have. I am very pleased with this laptop! http://www.cdw.com/shop/products/Acer-Aspire-TimelineU-M5-581T-6024-15.6in-Core-i5-3317U-Windows-7-Home/3035027.aspx

I spoke with customer service right now and they double checked. Unfortunately there is absolutely no ETA on the item. Is it even possible to get the ASUS U50Vg-B1 model which IS in stock and put a 500GB HDD, the 2.53GHz Intel P8700 Core 2 Duo Processor and the Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit) Operating System? I mean.. Thats the only difference between them.. I would assume its possible and would be great if they would since we have been waiting so long for this product. Its about to be a month since its been released.. Help us! lol :(

ok 2 points .... first i cant answer your question as i bought teh machine for my son at school. but I can tell you that one of the selling points wa that this laptop had an SSD and traditional HD. so not sure why you feel the need to replace onboard HD with another SSD. but i would imagine its pretty simple to do so

The one we purchased did not have ssd like the one posted, everything else was the same. It's been a great machine.

Yes it is... although I have not yet done so, because performance is sufficient for my current needs. Expansion was, however, a factor in my decision to buy this laptop.

You can upgrade the Ram and SSD without voiding the warranty. I have talked directly to technical support at MSI, but only those 2 things can be upgraded.

I haven't tried to but Crucial sells 240gb 2.5 inch internal SSD for this computer for about 125 bucks. Is this what you mean??

I have not had the need to upgrade, but I know when I bought it there were options on how much RAM so I assume it can be upgraded after purchase. My experience is that unlike desktops, a laptop should be worked on by a professional unless you are really comfortable opening them up.

Hi, I have not had occasion to try, so I can't answer the question first-hand. Here is a link that says the RAM is all soldered (not upgradeable) and that the SSD form factor is not one of the usual commercial standards. http://www.legitreviews.com/article/1903/3/ There are different hardware versions and revisions, so your mileage may vary, but I would assume not (easily) on both counts.

Checked with Asus support about SSD coming with UX31A-DB51. They admitted they supply different SSDs in it but said they need a serial number to advise which SSD is inside. Declined to explain how a user can understand SSD before purchasing the laptop

Dear Mr. Harris thanQ for your enquiry and the Thoshiba 128GB Q series Pro was replaced in my above mention laptop perfectely and working well. This new SSD Drive is running more speed than my old 500 GB mechanical drive after cloningon Windows 7 OS. Now I am using my old drive as external drive for the same laptop pc.

Yes the memory in this model can be upgraded. It comes with 4gb ddr3 1600 mhz and can be upgrade to 8gb. You should be able to find the memory here on Amazon.com. I would start by searching for ddr3 4gb 1600mhz laptop ram.
