Which is it? 256GB or 240GB? Might not seem like much, but 16GB means a lot when you're down to 10GB on the C drive.

When installed and formatted with Dell m6500 in the FCM slot running Windows 7 pro I get 223.5GB useable space. So that makes it 240GB raw size

With Windows 8.1 upgrades fully installed and clean up the C drive with Ccleaner and Bleachbit portableApps, it only uses 35.9 GB, still have lots of space for other programs.

On an Acer W500 running Windows 8.1 I'm showing 223GB. My Acer originally came with 32GB and I was down to 5GB free before I upgraded the MyDigitalSSD 256GB

I got total 223.57GB shows on windows 7 disk manager. For reference, my Samsung MZ-7TD250BW 840 bought 2 years back shows 232.88GB.

32GB assuming that you have windows 7 pro. Basic limits you on ram available.

I have 64GB of these in mine... the ramdrive works great and persists after rebooting.

The max is 8GB. Souce: Crucial.com (see comment on post below stating max was 16GB).

geez you all are so ignorant. the actual space is 64GB but a filesystem is needed to keep track of the files on the disk. how else do you expect it to work without a filesystem?

If you do not expect to grow beyond 130gb why not the 256gb 840/850pro. You can always go down if you aren't utilizing the full drive just so you don't drop too low where the disc is almost immediately full or you leave yourself with no room for growth.

This laptop use a 2.5 inch ssd drive. So you can install 80, 120, 240GB... Have a nice day.

It is worth getting the 64Gb version -- you cannot go back and add more later. As noted in the other post, the 64gb version does not provide a flash drive with the system restore image. I used a 16gb micro sd card in thumb drive and created a system restore drive. I was then able to free the 8gb that was used for the system restore image, and added to the space to the C: drive. I found a youtube video with the detail on the steps.

I'm not sure I understand your question. Each of the HDD versions have a fixed memory. I ended up buying the SD version and added a 16GB SD Card. There may have been some overhead loss, but I think I got pretty close to 16GB of storage. (P.S. - For a couple of reasons, I eventually went with the SanDisk Wireless Flash Drive. 4 kids can watch 4 different movies, and the adults can listen to music)

I think that means max. So I'd say you could use 16GB in factI usually use 16's instead of 32's

You cant, the drive is a cheap scam. The chip in it tells your computer it has 256gb of storage but in reality it probably has less than 1gb. This scam is successful because most people wont return this and just figure it a loss.

My experience is all the 15" laptops I come across support a second bay in the disk drive location, but you have to find a special 3rd party insert for it. I'm tempted to put BACK in the default HD because I upgrade to a SSD, but even a 240g drive is pretty tiny.

If they'r enot going to jump straight to 150GB or more, why even bother? Solid-state memory has already exceeded 32GB and has MUCH better performance attributes, including durability, energy/battery life, and flexibility.I will hold out for either a 1TB version or 64GB flash disk (or 32GB Flash disk + CF card expansion capability). And forget it if they try to ram some proprietary codec down my throat!

the one I have has a 256 gig solid state in it. It partitions down to a little bit less than that

I researched this a bit before I bought my N120 and got three decent answers. 1. Go with the default (evenly split) approx 80/80 (if its the default there may be a good reason, I just have not found out what it was). 2. Go with just a C Drive (100% C Drive), like most computers are set up. and 3. Go with 40GB for C and the rest with D (with this set-up, all programs load on the C and all Docs on D, that way if you ever need to reload the OS you do not have to touch your files).

Hey Matt I have used up to 16 gb so far with no problems. I bet you could use any size, as operationally its not different software so good luck! Hope it helps!

24 or 20 gb, I forget which. And a hard hard. It uses the ssd to hold a cache of the most often accessed files, which makes a lot of functions run faster.
