cheap 1 x 8gb ddr3-133 sodimm @ newegg (as of 1/20/2012)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Pro...6820144555 $55 with coupon EMCNJHN39 -- if you're looking to upgrade the hdd with another hdd or an ssd, the height has to be 7mm! (an uncommon height). typical laptop drives are 9.5mm. the samsung 830 series (128gb / 256gb) is 7mm also, Intel X25-M G2 or 320 G3 drives are compatible - you just unscrew the spacer (the drive comes w/ a black plastic spacer to make the drive 9.5mm, after removal its 7mm) - i'm running an X25-M G2 160gb as we speak!

Wow, great deal. The memory will be my next upgrade! The ssd costs the same as the notebook. May have to wait on it. Any info on cheaper drives?

Thread I've found that talks about related AC adapters. The included adapter for the Princeton is Model #PA-1400-14
http://forum.tabletpcreview.com/s...r-tip.html Looking for someone that has calibrated their LCD using color-calibration hardware such Spyder 3 or similar and is willing to share their ICC profile. |

Regarding spare batteries, does anyone know another source for the 6600mah battery linked in the wiki [ebay.co.uk]? The price seems very good but unfortunately the seller does seem to be selling it anymore. The seller does offer it in red, but I think keeping it black would be the best option. Thanks.

Yeah, the Intel X25-M series has the spacer (version G1 and G2). The X25-M got renamed/replaced with the 320 series (version G3). I got a good deal on a 160gb G2, and it fit in perfectly (after I removed the spacer of course  )

Anyone else have read write noises coming from theor hard drives? I get quite a lot of thrashing, audible in a quiet room. Audible over the fan as well.

Thanks for the thread. I bought the case logic case and it fits perfectly. Also, a word of caution to those who plan on buying the samsung ssd drive. You need the SAMSUNG 830 Series MZ-7PC128N/AM because this model has the reduced 7 mm size for ultrabooks.
