    HDD is very easy to install.

    Hardest part about installing RAM is removing the keyboard, but that's still easy. Not dissimilar to how you take the keyboard off in a D630, if you've ever done it.

    That's exactly what I did. 128GB SSD SATA3 and 2GB RAM, then tossed in 4x4GB memory stick and a 500GB hard drive after the fact.

    At some point, I might pick up a mSATA SSD. I'd like to shift, oh, page file onto it and perhaps some working documents. Having the 500GB spin up just to open/save a file takes a noticable amount of time.

    It is pretty easy to do these upgrades.

    Here is a video for installing RAM in a Latitude:
