Hi

This question is for current owners..

Can you please check the underside of your Laptops and see if the Optical drive is removable via slide out method or would the whole panel need to be opened to remove it..?
Or if someone is willing to check it 'throughly' that'll be great.

I need to install an SSD by removing the Optical drive. if the Optical drive is removable by sliding it out from the side then I can install the SSD without any warranty issue otherwise I will need to open the whole back panel which might kill the warranty..!!

Please some one check.

-thanks..

There ain't any slide out mechanism but there are three screws! one is inside the middle panel which can be removed to access RAM and HDD and other two are just at both sides of ODD [I'm not sure about this!] if i'm correct plz lemme know!......be sure to contact Samsung CC first

Thanks for checking.. Is there separate panel for the ODD or are there any screws specific to the ODD ..??

Can you upload a high res pic of the area .. :D
much obliged ..

btw I chatted with Samsung US support and they told me that removing any internal part (ODD etc) voids the warranty which is understandable .. but I'm wondering if I can put it back for servicing then I'm goo

Ps- I lost my Screw Driver so Couldn't open middle panel....sorry!

Edit:-Unscrewing these screws should make ODD to Pop-out from its BAY

that crash problem is with game itself....i listened from many friends when they minimize it and when try to open it crashes





But when I try it on my Desktop (with Intel Core i5-2310 and HD 3000) there is no such problem...
The funny thing is that when I do "open with graphic processor --> Integrated Graphics" the problem remains!!
And what about the constant FPS drops, is it due to throttling of CPU or GPU? Any word on that, as I checked the NVIDIA website today and there was no recommended drivers (only the Beta ones).
Thanks again...
