    Hi :)

    I just received my laptop (59406648), and I tried to find the type of SSD that I can buy/use for it. This is the picture of SSD part:

    Thank you for your replies. The only thing that I am worry about, is the fact that the slot in the SSD part of the board is made of 2 parts! but the pins on the MyDigitalSSD is made of 3 parts! and this makes me confused about the compatibility of this type of SSDs. Does it really fit in that type of slot?
