    Since it seems that they have stopped offering the 64g ssd msata for the configs. I was wondering if anyone had gotten a 32g ssd caching drive and how much free space it had on it after they installed the factory stuff to it? Thanks

    Is there actually anything pre-installed on that drive? I thought this was strictly a caching drive

    It is set as a caching drive only, you can format it and install Windows on it. The space remaining should not be less than 10GB, however you need to make sure you install software and get your info on the HDD.
