    Thanks for the reply. It seems the Corsair supports 1.5V too. I see in your signature that you've added a 120gb ssd. Which model is it? I'm planning on buying a 250gb Crucial msata. Did you face any problems in installing and configuring it?

    I don't know if there is an easier way, but as far as I know, you can't shrink the C: drive beyond a limit. What I did was, I created a Onekey Recovery backup, copied it to an external, formatted and re-partitioned the entire hdd and then restored.

    hey the link for the one key recovery is for win7..it says driver initialization failed..is there a win8 specific version? also, if i create a system image from windows, will i be able to restore using it from the onekey recovery? if there is no link, could you dropbox your setup file maybe?

    I have it turned off. But it's useful when you use the only outlet near you for the laptop charger. I never shut down, just put it to sleep. Did you know that when sleeping, it charges your phone in the 2.0 port even with 'Always ON USB' off?
