Sager standard procedure is to put them under the keyboard as mentioned, you wont need to get to them unless you need more the 24GB of RAM since the two open slots will support up to 8GB sticks each.

Awesome, thanks. I'll probably pick up another 8GB soon, since it's only like $50.

more than 8GB RAM is wayyy more than enough. Save yourself the extra $50 unless you REALLY need the extra memory. Whenever I'm heavily multitasking or playing games, I never use more than 4GB of RAM.

Yeah, I rip/burn a lot of DVDs and do some heavy video editing/rendering, so it'd probably be helpful in the long run.

Hey is there an information tab in catalyst control center for 12.6 ? I cant see the information tab in mine

Hey guys,

so I finally finished installing drivers from the CD that comes with this beast, it was more of a hassle, than I thought it'd be actually, because some of the drivers kept freezing on me during the install.

Anyway, there are 2 things that I didn't manage to get up and running. For one, it won't let me install the the bluetooth driver, keeps telling me that I don't have the hardware. The thing is, I thought that Windows 7 wouldn't even need a separate BT driver, as this is usually part of its package. No sign of bluetooth anywhere though and pretty confident I ordered a combo card.

The other problem is with the Intel rapid start technology driver, everytime I click to confirm that I want to install it, nothing happens. Do I really want/need this thing? A quick search just turned up a faster wake up from sleep mode, nothing really worth much attention from what it seems...



Onto other stuff concerning my new machine.

When I took this thing out of the box...wow, I've never seen a laptop built this well, it feels so rigid and strong, very impressed But... some fool at Sager managed to get one of the screw heads on the back cover completely stripped, I was working on removing it for a full hour, haha. Now I need to find a new screw somewhere...

But once I got things up and running... I can't believe I tried SSDs just now, never imagined it would be that blazing fast (well, it's a clean install and no bloatware, but still, the longest part of booting is me typing in the password!!!).

Now I'm gonna start installing games, so done bothering you with my excitement for the moment

You have to turn the bluetooth thingy on first with Fn+12 before installing the driver.

Now that just makes me feel dumb, thanks for the help

Probably not, actually. I have 12 GB in my desktop and even when rendering, editing, burning DVDs, etc., I probably max out at 60% RAM usage (~ 7 GB). I rarely go over 50%, even when rendering.

If you have the $50 to spend, feel free to go for it. But don't expect any significant changes as I highly doubt you would be using all of your 8 GB in the first place. Your CPU will probably bottleneck before your RAM will.

Hello guy! Can anyone tell me if this Sager's mSATA is SATA II or SATA III? I've been wondering since XoticPC's NP9150 page show only Intel's SATA II 310 series mSATAs as options...
