    I'm actually on windows 10 + ahci + ssd 950 pro and I have yet to experience even single crash of OS / bsod / etc.
    Everything is smooth...

    I am not sure of the price. It looks like the large dock comes with a 240 watt thin adapter, so you will have to factor that into the price.

    I asked him when, and he said "soon".

    Same here...When I received the laptop, did the BIOS update and then quickly swapped out the PM951 drive for 950 Pro and did a fresh install of windows 10 using Win 10 USB media creator tool. Loaded the Samsung Nvme drivers and haven't seen any BSOD or any other hiccups. Reading from all the previous post seems to be ppl with the stock m.2 drives are having BSOD or sleep issues.

    Is the 950 pro recognized on both cold and warm boots?

    Did you have to load up the Intel RST drivers to do clean install?

    I'm updated to all the latest drivers (incl video) all from the Dell Website. Dell Command | Udpdate, shows no available updates. However I've lost the ability to control my screen brightness. FN+F11/FN+12 do nothing, but all other FN+Fkeys function as normal. Anyone run into this? Been googling and havent found a solution.

    anyone found a micro SD card adapter that sits roughly flush? standard adapters stick out half an inch, and the MacBook adapter I picked up is too short / gets stuck inside.

    I see there is now a Surface Book adapter, will that work?

    I was having multiple BSODs daily. Updating the two gpu drivers helped a lot, but still got 1-2 BSODs due to PM951 nvme only system. Today, I installed the Samsung nvme drivers. Rock solid now, EXCEPT for the hot reboot-no hdd bug. On latest BIOS. Hope next BIOS comes soon.

    I think this may require trial and error; what I've done, if it helps is use a Mac adapter and squished a loop of heavy duty clear tape on the
    end so I've got a strap to pull it out. Works OK. I can post a photo if that's not clear enough. :)
