Lenovo G780 17.3" Laptop Core i7 8gig 1tb GT635 $749.99 + FS

This seems like a really good deal on a current-gen i7 + graphics. This thing would be good for some moderate gaming + would kill every day tasks.

What would it take to swap out the optical drive for an SSD?

Probably would need to get a optical bay hdd drive caddy that fits into the optical drive spot; I've been looking into these for a laptop that I upgraded to SSD.

If you do this, check and see which ports are sata III and which are sata II. A number of systems only use sata II for the optical drive (I believe in my system the hdd spot is sata III and the optical is sata II); you would probably want to put the ssd in the current hard drive spot (likely to be sata III, which the ssd can take advantage of the faster speeds) and then put the current hdd in the optical bay hdd caddy since sata II and III don't make much difference for a data hdd.
