Re: HD Upgrade for SZ
Is the harddrive swappable without opening the laptop?

Re: HD Upgrade for SZ
the previous s-series was a pain in the wrong place to change hard disks. U had to take more than a couple of screws apart...u had to open the back side completely. I am not sure the new S-series or SZ as its called is any better.

Re: HD Upgrade for SZ
So to change the SZ laptop's HDD requires only unscrewing a small panel at the bottom?
