Hi All,

Am using Series 5 s03in for almost 6 months. Its very great and Amazing! Working flawlessly. Would like to install ubuntu 12.10 side by side(along with windows 8). But worried, since the new boot image (UEFI) in windows 8 would brick laptop especially SAMSUNG Laptop.

Have any1 tried ubuntu 12.10 64 bit dual boot along with windows 8? Is it working fine? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
cyb0rgz

I have installed Fedora but wifi was not working so never used fedora. Other than that there were no problems.

Right off the assembly line
I own a Samsung S03IN Model purchased 6 months back and it works flawlessly except for the lame 5400 RPM HDD. I am planning to replace it with a SSD so would like to know if anybody has tried it either with 2 x 500 GB SSD or is it just possible to connect just one 500 GB SSD .

Can anybody help me out here & also let me know which SSD is best and the approx cost for the same.

Planing to purchase Samsung NP550P5C S04IN as Y500 is out of the budget. Any owners here want to share their experience .. Worried about heating issues as the place where i stay is prone to dust ..

Or is there any other option in this price range ( 50-55K )
I'll try to procure it locally else i'll go the flipkart way.
